For more than a year, we have thoughtfully considered and prayerfully explored the possibility of expanding on our current property. While we believe that option could work, it would increase the total cost of the project by several million dollars. After much prayer, planning, and wise counsel, we believe relocating allows us to be better stewards of the resources God has entrusted to us while still creating a space where our church can continue to grow and reach people for years to come.

While we are still waiting on the final numbers, we know that after the sale of our current building to the Sullivan School District, we will still need to raise several hundred thousand dollars to complete our new facility. That is a significant amount, but it is also important to recognize the incredible blessing God has already provided. By selling our current building and constructing our new campus, we are saving several million dollars compared to other options. Every gift brings us one step closer to creating a permanent home where lives will continue to be changed for generations to come. We are grateful for God's faithfulness and for the generosity of our church family as we move forward together.

With the guidance and expertise of our contractors, we now have a solid blueprint and a clear plan for moving forward. From the day we break ground to the day we gather for our very first worship service in the new building, we anticipate a construction timeline of approximately 18 months. While the journey will require patience, we are excited to watch each phase unfold as God continues to provide and lead us into this next chapter of ministry.
