“I will not go home; I will not let myself rest. I will not let my eyes sleep nor close my eyelids in slumber until I find a place to build a house for the Lord, a sanctuary for the Mighty One of Israel.”
Psalm 132:3-5
OUR PURPOSE
New Covenant Church exists to host the presence of God, to equip believers to do the work of the ministry, and to be a gathering place for people to pursue an encounter with God. We believe that New Covenant Church is becoming a beacon of the presence of God in our region. What God is doing here is much bigger than us; and we have the opportunity to Build His House for generations to come encounter the power and presence of God.
OUR POSITIVES
We have a healthy and growing congregation.
We are very much alive, and God is moving here.
We are debt free!
We have an existing 21,000 sq. ft. building.
We have 9.2 acres in a great location.
We have already saved $160,000 to begin with.
OUR PINCH POINTS
-
Children’s ministry attendance is on average 25% of the sanctuary attendance. Having 200 adults means we have 50 in nursery and children’s areas. Currently, we have 3,200 sq. ft for children, and we need more. We have repurposed two upstairs rooms to help with crowding for now.
-
We currently have 70 parking spots. For our weekly attendance we should have minimum 150 spots. We have added a second Sunday service to alleviate the pinch.
-
Our lobby is tiny. At 485 sq. ft, it is 90% smaller than our sanctuary requires. Hallways, meeting spaces, and isles are over crowded before and after services due to poor design.
-
Our meeting spaces are used upwards of 60 times a month and are not large enough to handle large groups, forcing us to limit the number of people able to participate.
THE PROJECT
We plan to raise $800,000 to put towards building a new, $1.7 million Generations Building for our growing church, while simultaneously upgrading our existing building to better achieve the mission of our church. The layout of our new Generations Building will be thoughtfully designed for our growing children’s ministries with a functional lobby to navigate the building and a large gathering space that can be used for Youth and Young Adults. By moving our kids ministries to a second building, we can convert the existing children’s spaces for other uses.
PARTNER WITH US
We invite you to prayerfully consider sowing into this mission by making a gift today or standing with us for the duration of the campaign with a 3-year commitment. Together, we will arise and build a house to honor and host the Lord.
