Building for the Future: Our Church Construction Project

“Unless the Lord builds the house, they labor in vain who build it.” Psalm 127:1 (NASB)

We are excited to share that our church is embarking on a long-awaited and prayerfully considered construction project! As God continues to grow our congregation and expand our ministry, we are taking this important step to prepare a place that will serve our community for years to come.

Project Overview

This $4.5 million construction project will provide much-needed space and resources to help us better fulfill our mission. The new addition will include:

  • A spacious main lobby, providing a warm and welcoming environment for fellowship.
  • 66 additional sanctuary seats, allowing more people to gather for worship and teaching.
  • A safe and nurturing nursery for our youngest children.
  • New, easily accessible bathrooms on the main level.
  • Five additional classrooms to expand our ministry to children, youth, and adults.

 
This expansion is more than bricks and mortar; it is about creating a place where people can encounter God, grow in faith, and serve others.
“They will be called oaks of righteousness, The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.”
Isaiah 61:3 (NASB)

The Vision Behind the Project

 

Our goal is not simply to build, but to create a space that reflects the heart of our church—a place where:

  • Newcomers are welcomed with open arms.
  • Families are supported and strengthened.
  • Believers are equipped to grow in faith and serve with confidence.
  • Lives are transformed through the power of the Gospel.

“And let us consider how to encourage one another in love and good deeds, not abandoning our own meeting together…but encouraging one another.”
 Hebrews 10:24-25 (NASB)

Every contribution, no matter the size, will help us move closer to completing this important work.

“Each one must do just as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”
 2 Corinthians 9:7 (NASB) 

Building Together for His Glory

This project represents a significant step forward in our calling to be the hands and feet of Christ. As we continue to grow, we do so with hearts full of gratitude for God’s provision and your faithful support. We humbly ask for your prayers, involvement, and generosity as we move forward.

“Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.”
 Ephesians 3:20-21 (NASB)
