FAQ

  • The Built Up Initiative seeks to address 4 areas of need as we have experienced recent growth:

    (1) Kids classrooms

    (2) Inadequate parking

    (3) Cramped lobby space

    (4) Outdated bathrooms

    While we will prioritize kids' classrooms, the plan is to expand and update all of these areas while leaving room for a larger sanctuary in the future.

    Our total goal is $800,000.

    Our plan is to seek half ($400,000) through Built Up commitments over a three-year period through the following ways:

    (1) A large, one-time gift between now and December 31, 2023, to get this expansion project going immediately.

    (2) An ongoing gift commitment over the next 3 years to reach our goal of $400,000.

  • Raising these needed funds ensures that the next generation will continue to hear about the mighty works of God (Psalm 145:4) while we seek to leave a spiritual legacy that lasts.

  • Thank you so much for how you support the mission and work of God through our church!

    From our humble beginnings setting up and tearing down at an elementary school to the updated renovation of our current building, we’ve seen how God has used these places and spaces to build up our church body to be sent out on Gospel mission in glorifying God, loving our neighbors and making disciples who make disciples. Through God’s grace and your continued sacrificial giving, we eagerly await what God will do in this next phase of life here at GCC!

    Throughout the Built Up Initiative, some will be able to give more, some will be able to give less. Regardless, it is not about equal gifts, it is about shared sacrifice.

    “You will be enriched in every way to be generous in every way, which through us will produce thanksgiving to God.”

    [2 Corinthians 9:11]
