Before we ever built on our current location, the
leadership of Christ Church knew that it would only be our temporary
home. We believed that if we were faithful in our call to follow Christ
and make Christian disciples that our Glen Eagles location would eventually
be much too small to fulfill our mission. We were right! God has blessed
us and has opened the door for us to follow Him to a new location.
Currently, we have exhausted every available space for ministry and
mission on our campus. There is no more room. There is no room to:
• Expand our Children’s Ministry.
•
Grow our Youth Ministry.
•
Grow our adult small group discipleship classes.
•
Develop a much needed area for Christian
Counseling.
•
Grow our Worship Service at 10:00am.
•
Develop classes and seminars to support and
encourage parents and families.
•
Add classes to our weekday Christian Preschool.
•
Add additional staff offices.
•
Park more cars in our parking lot at 10:00am.
The bottom line is that there is simply no more “room in the inn.”
Our new location at 7600 Ox Road, just a few miles north of our current
campus, will provide enough land for us to grow on for many years to
come. God is positioning us to be planted in a highly visible and convenient
location on Route 123. Thousands of people will pass in front of our
campus each day, which will give us the opportunity to dramatically increase
our witness for Christ.
In 1994 and again in 1998 the people of Christ Church faithfully followed
God’s call and stepped forward to build our current building. Since
that time six trailers have been added increasing our education, meeting
and office space. Thank God that those who came before us didn’t
squelch God’s Spirit and simply hang a “No Vacancy” sign
on the church door. Now it’s our turn to do the right thing and
follow God where He is leading. May all who come behind us find us faithful! |
