First, thank you! Thank you for taking the time to learn about this project. Thank you for giving the Holy Spirit the opportunity to speak to you on what role he is asking you to play in seeing Liberty County changed forever. God is doing amazing things through Freedom Church and we know this is only the beginning. We want you to be a part!
When you look through the Bible, you see moment after moment where God does amazing and miraculous things. While we know God is the power behind those amazing things, he always involves people in the process. It is something that moves me about God: he wants us involved in his plan to see humanity restored.
For some of us it means a lifetime of service in vocational ministry. For others, it is outside the four walls. For others still, God is calling you to move the Kingdom financially. ALL are important! Whatever your role, I want to say thank you for being willing to let God use you to help make the miraculous happen.
Monique and I are so grateful for you, your support, and we ask you continue to pray with us as we fulfill this mission to see Liberty County changed for eternity. God bless you!
THE VISION
God has given us a perfect opportunity to make a major, generational impact in Liberty County and beyond. With the purchase of 11 acres of prime real estate on Hwy 90 in Liberty, we are positioned to see our entire area changed forever.
Liberty represents a comfortable middle ground for our current ten county reach, and beyond just Liberty County, this space will help us continue to make a Kingdom impact in these surrounding counties and communities.
We are currently planning a facility that will meet the needs of our growing congregation for years to come. The existing facility will provide move-in ready space for our Kid’s Ministry and church offices, providing plenty of expansion potential, and with 11 acres, we will have ample room to grow.
We are planning to construct a 15,000 sq. ft. worship center with a 364 seat auditorium directly behind the existing building.
This facility will be unmatched in Liberty and will not only be designed with the most modern, yet cost-effective industrial style design, but it will also serve its intended purpose to facilitate Heaven being populated and lives being changed now and for eternity.
THE PLAN
Our goal is to build a 15,000 sq ft worship center that would allow us to host over 1000 people across two services on a Sunday, and while that is the end goal, we believe the best next step is a 7500 sq ft ~200 seat facility that includes a foyer, restrooms, and a sanctuary.
Phase 1 is exactly half of the proposed 15,000 sq ft facility and would allow us to quickly build and move in while we raise funds to complete the other half. Our blueprints were originally drawn to have the 400 seat auditorium on one half with the foyer, restrooms, a cafe, and two meeting rooms in the other half.
By shifting from renovating the warehouse due to a compromised foundation to Phase 1, we have the opportunity to put all our capital towards the end goal rather than a temporary structure. This is a better use of the funds given towards this project.
To our Board and Presbytery, this seems to be the best step forward, and after prayer and consideration, we are moving forward with Phase 1!
THE COSTS
The costs are super important and our team is working hard to find the right people, right materials, and all at the right price. We have a team working together to develop detailed plans, work with the city in terms of permitting and regulations, hiring businesses for dirt work, concrete, building erecting, and to secure the actual building itself. With multiple quotes, we are working hard to ensure we hire the right people at the right price.
We are estimating a total build cost of around $200,000-$225,000 for the 7500 sq ft facility. That includes dirt to the building built, and also finishing out the inside. Once we get the building up, the finish work will be relatively easy and we believe we can do it on a dime.
Our goal is not just to build a building, but to steward well the provision God brings so that we can honor God as we follow his plan. To date, we have $160,000 given towards this project with another $10,000 pledged as well.
We’d humbly ask you to ask God how he would have you give towards the completion of Phase 1!
