We rejoice and give thanks to God for His faithfulness to our church for our new Ministry Building. With our church family united in prayer and pledge, we continue to seek God’s provision to build a facility that help expand our ministries, facilitate our community outreach, and contribute to the community’s redevelopment. The resulting 21,000 square-foot, three-story building adjoining the Worship Center will house multi-generational facilities.
- A nursery for newborns and infants, and classrooms for the elderly.
- Unified by a central open-air courtyard. A pedestrian passageway into the courtyard from Yale Street will be through a traditional moon gate sponsored by our Children’s Ministry.
