“Growing to reach, building to serve”

The “room for one more” campaign aims to expand our church to empower the next generation, connect with community, and share the gospel.

We believe every number has a name, every name has a story, and every story matters to God. Your support helps create space for hope, growth, and God’s work to multiply!

— Pastor Nic

Pastor Nic has given a building update in April of 2026.

The youth building has begun! We are ahead of schedule and making some serious progress. We are changing the check-in process, making every room a little bigger, and creating an overall better flow for our entire building. Thank you for your patience as our construction workers are working throughout the week and then preparing the space to be ready for our services!


Pastor Nic led a two-week sermon series on the 2025-2027 Room for One More campaign, which you can watch below. In the first sermon, he shares the vision behind the campaign and outlines plans for expanding our building space. In the second sermon, he emphasizes the importance of the people and the lives that will be impacted as they walk through our doors.
