“Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen!” Ephesians 3:20-21
As the body of Christ, we have been exercising our ministries “to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up” (Eph. 4:12). This work has been marked by faithfulness to the Word of God and by the love with which we welcome those God has brought to us. As Ephesians also states, we have been growing in Christ “speaking the truth in love.”
In this way, we are not surprised to see how much God has been building His Church both spiritually and numerically. This growth has generated new opportunities to reach our community and to further develop our ministries. Such growth also brings new challenges and needs.
This section of our website was created specifically to share with you one of our most pressing challenges: Today, our gatherings are already taking place in the annex we have built, which is intended to serve as future classrooms with space for approximately 250 people. However, it can no longer accommodate the growth God has granted us. The same is true for our classrooms (in the old building set to be demolished), which are nearly at capacity with the number of students.
God, in His infinite goodness, has already blessed us in many ways. The land we have is a testament to His kindness. And during 2018, He allowed us to begin the architectural and engineering projects for our new sanctuary. With the plans finalized and approved by the city, we have begun construction. The designs and virtual renderings give us a clear vision of what will be built.
The construction has already begun, and the project was planned in such a way that the new worship hall can be built without requiring any modifications to the current hall. This allows us to continue holding our meetings and worship services to our God while the work is carried out. As a church, we have been setting aside part of our resources for the construction of the new sanctuary, and we are moving forward in stages as resources allow. There is still much to be done, but we know that everything happens according to His will, and we wait in peace for the right moment when God will allow us to advance. In the meantime, we are doing our part.
If you are interested in helping with this project, there are several ways you can contribute:
1. Pray
God is the owner of everything. We are entirely dependent on Him to make these dreams come true—dreams that will only come to fruition if they align with the will and desire of our Father. Persistent prayer is the means by which we ensure we are fulfilling God’s purpose in our lives and allowing Him to work in our hearts throughout this journey.
2. Serve and Participate
More than material resources and possessions, God is interested in our souls and our lives. A new sanctuary means nothing if those within it are not seeking the Lord with all their hearts and minds, in spirit and in truth. Before considering financial assistance, seek God, dedicate your life to loving and serving Him. Get involved in our church or your own, be built up, and allow God to use your life to accomplish His work.
3. Contribute
We believe that God has already blessed your life in many ways, and we do not believe that you will be more or less blessed based on your financial contribution to this project. If you wish to support us financially, you can use the bank details below or this link to make your contribution. We thank God for your kindness and generosity.
As the Bible passage that began this text reminds us, we know that God is “able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine.” We rejoice in Him and rest patiently in His goodness!
