HEART FOR THE HOUSE

a campaign for growth

God has been so gracious to allow our church to be the keeper of this campus — a place where the Gospel has been faithfully proclaimed for more than 80 years.

We now have the privilege and responsibility to be good stewards of this “house of worship,” caring for the needs of our facilities while also preparing them for the ministry opportunities of today. Our desire is that this campus will continue to serve — and be strengthened — as a gospel outpost for our surrounding neighborhoods and our city.

While there are many dreams and long-term goals for our campus, there are four pressing projects we plan to address and begin this year:

  1. Expanding Balcony Seating - God has graciously grown our church, and we believe that growth will continue. The balcony in our sanctuary has the potential to provide an additional 100–150 seats. Our goal is to renovate and prepare this space for use before our 2025 Christmas Eve Eve gathering, allowing more people to worship together under one roof.

  2. Adding Lobby Restrooms - Currently, the main restrooms are located behind the stage. To better serve our congregation and guests, we plan to add single men’s and women’s restrooms in the front lobby of the sanctuary, providing easier and more accessible facilities for everyone.

  3. Installing a Perimeter Fence Along Blanding Blvd. - As a church filled with young families, safety is one of our top priorities. Because our campus sits near a busy roadway, we will install a fence along Blanding Blvd., creating a clear and secure boundary that will help protect our children and families.

  4. Renovating the Fellowship Hall - Beneath the original chapel on the north end of the campus sits our Fellowship Hall, complete with a full kitchen. Historically, this space has hosted Wednesday night gatherings, church dinners, and various meetings. Through this campaign, we will update and refresh the hall to create a warm, inviting space for meals, community events, and small group gatherings.


A Campaign for Growth

In order to faithfully steward the resources and growth God has entrusted to our church, we are entering a new season of our Heart for the House campaign.

Over the next 60 days, our goal is to raise $100,000 to complete these vital campus improvements. Reaching this goal will take the generous partnership of God’s people — living on mission together and giving generously toward what He is building in and through our church.

Thank you for your prayers, your generosity, and your commitment to being part of what God is doing through The District Church.
