Building Update August 25

Latest building update from Pastor Pat

One of our members came to Pastor Pat with an idea that really made sense. The idea in short was instead of building a completely new facility on the lot we own next door, what if we added on to our current building? After exploring the idea further, we discovered that a 7,000 square foot addition would give us everything we need—at a significantly lower cost than we first anticipated.


We’ve since met with a builder, Ryan Dale with Titus Building Company, and his architect, Jared Malone with Associated Architects. After several meetings, our elder board has prayerfully decided that this is the direction we’re going to take.


The plan is to add a 7,000 square foot expansion that will include a 500-seat auditorium connected directly to our existing building, where our current back paved parking lot sits. Our current building will be remodeled to meet the needs of other ministries that are experiencing growth, namely CalvaryKids.


We’ve signed an initial agreement for pre-construction services, which will take us through the design and permitting phase. If all goes smoothly, we could be breaking ground by the middle of next year!


This is a major milestone in the life of our church. Please join us in praying that God will give us favor with the city, and with everyone involved in this process. Let’s keep trusting Him to guide each step as we build for the future!
