51% FUNDED!

What an incredible milestone and testimony of God’s faithfulness.

Just weeks ago, we shared a vision for more than a building; a place of worship, refuge, hope, and community. A place where ministries can grow, lives can be changed, and our city can be served.

Today, we celebrate being 51% of the way there.

Thank you to everyone who has prayed, given, and believed alongside us. Every gift is helping create a space that will serve both our church and our community for years to come.

We’re not there yet, but we’re amazed by what God has already done.

Let’s keep believing together.

Update on the building fund:

In just a short time, we’re already at 16% funded toward the vision God has placed before us. We’re grateful for every prayer, every gift, and every person believing with us.

This isn’t simply about purchasing a building.

We believe this will become a place of worship for our community and a home where people can encounter God, find healing, and experience hope.

A place where ministries can grow and be launched. A place where people can gather in times of need. A place where the churches of our city can come together in worship. A place where lives are changed.

Part of this fund will help secure the building itself. Part will help transform it, creating a sanctuary and entry space that welcomes people in with warmth, purpose, and peace.

We’re not building for ourselves alone. We’re building for what God wants to do through this city.

Over the past season, an opportunity has opened up for us to purchase a new building, one we truly believe is bigger than us.

Our pastor, John Hankins, has spoken this to be a place that will become a hub for our community. Not just a church building… A place where ministries are birthed. Where people are seen, known, and cared for. Where lives are changed. A place anyone can find refuge, rest, and hope. This will allow us to continue expanding our outreach capabilities in ways not even imagined yet.

We have a heafty goal: $150,000 in 2 months.

That’s big. But so is the vision.

If you feel led to be part of what God is building here, you can give in a few ways:

• click this link to give online (add a note “New Building Fund”) https://www.givelify.com/donate/the-sanctuary-cedar-rapids-ia-2j7wy5MTQ5ODA2OQ==/donation/amount

• Mail in or bring a check to our current building 912 18th Ave SW Cedar Rapids IA. 52404

• Give anonymously in person at Veridian Credit Union (note “CR Sanctuary Building Fund”)

Whether you give, share this, or simply pray, we believe this is something God is doing.

Let’s see what happens when we say yes together. Here are a few photos so you can see our vision!
