A Vision to Reach our Community

Make Room is bigger than a building. It's a vision to create capacity for more people to Follow Jesus, Find Community, and Make A Difference.
Jesus called His followers to "go and make disciples of all the nations." In Acts 1:8, He described that mission as moving outward — from Jerusalem, to Judea, to Samaria, to the ends of the earth. That outward movement is our heart too.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Make Room?
A vision to expand our ministry so we can reach the people in our community who need Jesus. It's about more than square footage, it's creating capacity for more people to follow Jesus, find community, and make a difference in the years ahead.

Are we just building a building?
No. We're building capacity for discipleship, community, and impact. Phase 1 gives us a new auditorium, expanded kids and family spaces, and room to gather, so more people have a place to take their next step with Jesus
Why now?
Kids space, volunteer capacity, and ministry environments are already at their limits. More than 136,000 people live in our surrounding area, and over 45,000 rarely or never attend church. It's time to prepare for the people God is sending our way.
What is the total project cost?
The Make Room facility project is $7 million. That covers everything in Phase 1,  the auditorium, kids and family spaces, playground, expanded lobby, parking improvements, and production upgrades
How will we pay for it?
Through cash on hand, 3-year church-wide pledges, and a construction loan. We'll also actively pursue land, building, and playground grants to help offset costs and reduce how much we need to borrow.
When do we plan to break ground?
New Covenant's new building will go as the people go. Paired with faith, our team will only move forward to break ground when we can confidently make this financial commitment. We're leaving this timeline open, based on your generosity.
How can I be part of this?
Pray for this next season of ministry. Serve using the gifts God has given you. Invite the people already in your life and ask God what step of faith He's calling you to take whether that's a pledge, a gift, or getting more involved.
