Our 1 year initiative to fund three building renovations
that will better prepare us to serve the urban community
as an URBAN CHURCH.
33 years ago, when the CityChurch movement began, we were defined as a suburban church. When we opened our first auditorium in 1995, there were just a few subdivisions out this far on Bandera Road. Most of the people who lived in this immediate area were middle to upper-middle class people with only a few businesses and only a handful of restaurants. There were no condominiums or apartments.
Over these past 3 decades, things have changed quite a bit in our city and in our community. And that means we need to make some changes as a church movement to adjust to our changing community.
Our Goal:
Raise $1 million over the next year which will cover the costs of the 3 renovation projects.
What Renovations?
Renovate KidCity Elementary
We are serving more families with kids than ever before. With the renovation of KidCity we will renovate the back large space in the KidCity building, adding solid/sound-proof moveable wall partitions so we can net 3 spaces with the flexibility to make the spaces larger or smaller depending on the need.
Renovate The Video Cafe
Built in 1994, the video cafe over time has become a flexible, multi use space for many groups to meet. We plan to renovate this space to make more room for the people who like to watch our services in that space, and create a vibe in the space for our CityYouth students who meet in there weekly.
Renovate Video Cafe Backstage Into New
CityChurch Food Pantry
With many food insecure families within a 10-mile radius around our church, we want to renovate the stage area in the Video Café building and turn it into a food pantry. This will allow us to serve and provide food for people in need right here in our community.
CityChurch all of these renovations will help our URBAN CHURCH make more room so we can serve more and more people, helping them believe and thrive in Jesus.
