New Hope Church Expansion Project

As part of our ONE Initiative, we are so excited to be breaking ground on our First Street location expansion. Over the coming months we will be expanding our footprint, adding a brand new 1000 person sanctuary, beautiful new lobby, entirely new kid's church wing to welcome new families and an expanded parking lot.

What happened

The concrete foundation has been fully completed. Bricklayers finished the fireplace as far as possible until the steel structure is tied in and completed in that area. They have since moved on to tarping in and constructing the rear block-wall stairwell.
The hydro run for the new transformer has been brought to the road at Rykert and is ready for the city to directionally bore under the road to tie in the lines. The dirt pile has been removed, and the pond area is now available and waiting to be used as a prep area for the steel layout. 

What's happening

Steel preparation is currently underway, which includes minor layout work and final adjustments. Additional gravel is being added to the main building area and will be graded and leveled.

What's happening next

The next major milestone remains the installation of the structural steel. Once the inventory is confirmed and any required yard alterations are completed, steelworkers will begin the process of erecting the steel structure.  

What to pray for

Please pray for our workers, for both their physical and mental safety. Pray that as they work on our church, the church would have the opportunity to work in their hearts and lives, and that through this work they may come to know God.

How Can I Get Involved?
