Project Overview

We are in the process of completely renovating the facility we have been in for 25 years, to finally transform it from a roller rink (what the building was originally built for) into a house of worship, to utilize as an effective tool for ministry to all generations. The scope of this project is a complete renovation of our building. We will turn our blank canvas of a facility into a masterfully-used space to minister to as many people as possible. This consists of enclosing our sanctuary, creating a safe children’s wing for our “bursting at the seams” kids ministry, and creating a welcoming, hospitable lobby for our guests to be warmly greeted. We will be adding many new walls, updating all carpet, fixtures and furnishings, and updating the exterior of our build. Once complete, we will be able to fit 368 seats into our enclosed sanctuary and have sufficient offices for our growing staff. We will have a safe and secure kids wing consisting of 8 kids ministry rooms and a full indoor playground. As well, we will have 6 small group rooms and a brand new kitchen and cafe located right near the front entrance. The exterior of our building will be transformed into an open, warm and welcoming invitation to our community with windows all throughout our building adding natural light throughout. We will expand from 22,000 square feet to over 34,000 square feet in our facility by the addition of a second story. The cost of remodel is $5,054,206 plus the A/V costs, parking lot, and our current mortgage we have, totaling $5,528,089.40. Over the last year we raised $238,603.99, along with another $128,852.00 more in 3 year pledges. By the fall of 2023, we would like to have our budgeted amount for the project set and perform the amount of work we can accomplish within the budget. We are so grateful to present our Legacy Project to you and for your thoughtful consideration in partnering with us in this great endeavor. Any and all gifts are greatly appreciated as we continue ministering in our city, faithfully stewarding what we have been entrusted with as a church. Bless you and all you do!
