Together Campaign
$600,000
Money committed to the Building Renovation.
On May 31st, 2021, a resounding 76% of the voting members voted in favor of taking out a loan so that we can build the first two phases of the renovation at the same time. We are now working with the architect to make these goals a reality:
- the building will better reflect God's mission
- people of all abilities will be together in the building, this includes an elevator and new accessible bathrooms
- the band led worship service and choir led worship will be together in a more flexible Sanctuary
- more space for comfort-giving ministries
More information in the members section.
