How will the additional space within the new facility be utilized?
The new construction will add 63,000 square feet of space and will consist of a 2,000-seat worship center, a coffee shop, a bookstore, and 12 new classrooms for preschool and children's ministry. After the addition is complete our total square footage will be 82,500.
What is the cost of the new facility?
The cost of new construction is estimated at $6.6 million with an additional $2 million for furniture & equipment.
How does fulfilling my pledge help with the financing of our facility?
The fulfilled pledges made towards the DREAM will reduce the amount we have to borrow at the end of construction. We have secured a construction loan for $7.5 million. However, our prayer is that this number would be largely reduced upon construction completion.
During the construction process, will our current programs be affected?
During this season, we may have to make some adjustments to our calendar but our vision will continue to be to provide "real hope, for real people, in a real world."
When can we occupy our new facility?
Construction is slightly ahead of schedule and we hope the new facility will be ready by Christmas, 2007.
