It’s time to think beyond the right now. To ask and imagine again. To anticipate what could be. To lean into the vision God has called us to.
Will you go beyond with us to love kids, strengthen families and reach our community? We’re excited for you to join us as we follow Jesus and move forward in this new season together!
Our Vision
Our mission as a church leads us to support children, families, and our community. To that end, we want to renew and improve our facilities to better serve children, families, and our community. When the Beyond updates are complete, our church will have an improved space for children to learn more about Jesus, as well as expanded space for family and community connection.
Future Updates & Goal
We will create spaces conducive to ministering to children and families. These updates will include:
Preschool/Kids Updates
Welcome Area Updates
Exterior Patio
Administration Office Updates
Through the Beyond effort, we’re focused to raise $1 million throughout the next 24 months.
