Our Plans
To Vastly Improve Our Physical Space To Worship, Grow, and Serve
Transformed Worship Space
A Larger, Level Stage Platform
- Our stage platform will be enlarged by over 300 square feet by removing the front storage area and sacristy.
- Our preachers and worship leaders will have more space and opportunities to lead services together. Baptismal families will have room to gather and celebrate with the pastor at the baptismal font.
- Dedicated band, choir, and bell choir space with enhanced visibility will enable everyone to better appreciate the beautiful music and talents of our music leaders and performers.
- A ramp will make our stage area accessible to all.
Expanded Seating Space
Larger windows and sliding doors will open up the back wall between the worship and gathering space. This allows for overflow seating within our existing worship space during busier services like Christmas and Easter.

- The new technology, microphones, and speakers will be easier to use.
- Better live-streaming equipment will enable us to fulfill our desire to reach beyond our walls to transform other lives through Christ.
Improved Lighting System

New Fellowship, Activity, & Meeting Space
Large Group Fellowship & Activity Space
- This large, attractive, dedicated large group space will allow us to keep the sanctuary arranged for services.
- We will be able to host community-building activities like Serve Sundays, breakfasts, brunches, and dinners.

- This space can easily be offered for community use and rental.
Expanded, Subdividable Classroom & Meeting Spaces
- Dividers will make the space usable for multiple small to medium-sized classes and meetings to be held simultaneously.
- We will be able to accommodate several groups at once, alleviating many of our room scheduling challenges.
Larger, Full-Service Kitchen
- A new, full-service kitchen with more storage and food preparation space and commercial-grade appliances will enable us to cater a whole host of activities, meetings, and events.
- The kitchen will make the new fellowship space more rentable.
- A small area of the existing kitchen will be remodeled as a coffee and serving area for Sundays and other smaller activities.

- A large, convenient, comfortable, and confidential conference room.
Enhanced Security For Our Facility & Preschool
