When God gave us the vision to relocate back in 1999, we faced a number of intimidating obstacles, not the least of which was finding and paying for forty-plus acres of land for our new church campus. The whole church made this a matter of prayer and action. Soon God miraculously provided the right property, in the right place, at the right cost. Then we began to plan and dream about what God wanted us to build on this land. Before long we had a master plan and a first phase identified for us to start with. It was a daunting challenge…a much larger undertaking than we had ever faced. But with everyone’s participation, the dream became a reality, and here we are today.

As God has prospered the ministry here, our 9:30 service has become overcrowded…our children are out of space…and our Adult Sunday School and Wednesday night classes have run out of room. Our youth are maxing out their space, not to mention the fact that they have been without a gym facility since we left our old building three years ago. All of these elements have led our leaders to determine that now is the time for us to move forward with phase two of our master plan.
