BUILDING A FOUNDATION FOR THE NEXT GENERATION
STEP 2
BUILD THE E.T.C.
EQUIPPING & TRAINING CENTER
We know church is not a place we attend, but it is a body of believers who are equipped for ministry, anchored in Christ, built up in love, growing in knowledge and wisdom, full of the Holy Spirit, and empowered to make disciples of all people everywhere.
Rather than building a "church" we have a burden and desire to build an Equipping & Training Center which connects into our current building. It will be where we do Sunday services, but also where we host events, train ministers, create a space for both our community and church family to train, empower, and equip people to find hope in Christ.

11 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, 12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, 13 till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; 14 that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, 15 but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ— 16 from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.

STEP 3
RENOVATE & ELEVATE
NEXTGEN COMMUNITY CENTER
Our current building will be renovated & given a facelift to become our NextGen Community Center. The lower level connecting into the brand new Equipping & Training Center will lose some walls, gain some paint, and become dedicated to Kids Ministry. Back rooms which are currently unused will become a "bullpen" office for a collaborative work space, meeting room for counseling & staff meetings, and recording space for online discipleship resources.
The current sanctuary will become our Youth Ministry worship space as well as a community outreach space for luncheons, food pantry, & the like, to make full use of the commercial kitchen.

CONTINUING TO LOOK TO THE FUTURE
STEP 4
EMERGENCY PLACEMENT CENTER
We will use the "E.T.C." and our NextGen Community Center to meet needs of our community, lifting up people who will lift up others also. Part of this desire is building a Home of Hope. This Home will be for women & children seeking emergency placement & care. This home will also have a community garage for Foster Parents, individuals needing clothing for interviews, and the like for our community.
DORMS & EDUCATION CENTER
A continued focus on the NextGen is not simply "Kids & Youth" but the Next Generation of disciples. We have a desire to build dorms & housing for ongoing and next level education of Students, Missionaries, Church Planters, and future Full-Time Ministers. Whether 4 or 40, 8 or 80, we are constantly raising up the next generation of disciple-makers who will proclaim Jesus to everyone, everywhere.
BUILD THE FOUNDATION TOGETHER.

GIVE GENEROUSLY
Pray about it. Give what you've decided to give, not out of compulsion but out of confirmation. If married decide together, pray together, pray separately, come together in unity, decide what to do as one. Ask God to give you an specific amount, then have faith for Him to provide what He tells you to give.
