Hi Church Family,

We are blessed with a great campus, facilities that have enabled us to impact countless lives throughout this region, and we are thankful! Your generosity allowed us to replace the roof (looks amazing!), upgrade mechanicals, repair doors, upgrade outdated AVL equipment, and various cosmetic improvements throughout the rooms. Thank you!

As we move forward into 2026, the message from God has been clear, “Complete Campus Upgrades & Utilize all Places and Spaces." Our building can be and should be a place for community impact all week long, not just on Sundays! In addition to the various ministries (Youth, Young Adults, small groups) utilizing the classrooms, gym, and auditorium every week, we will launch a more direct promotion to the community in 2026, allowing them to rent other areas our facility besides the gym. After we revitalize our classrooms, and finish our AVL upgrades, our plan would allow people to rent space for their community events such as weddings, memorials, baby showers, birthday parties, etc. (as long as their event is honoring to God). This will help us cover building and operational costs while we continually minister to the broader community!

We are confident that this ambitious vision will ignite our faith and remind us of God’s greatness. Below is a summary of the projects we will begin at this campus as resources come in. I pray that God stirs your faith as you consider a generous gift (above your general giving) dedicated to the Heart for His House initiative.

Thank you for your generosity and your dedication to Grace Church. Together, we are building a future that will impact generations to come!

With love and gratitude,
Vern & Alicia Martin

Grace Kids Wing

Our primary project for 2026 is the much-needed refurbishing of our Children’s classrooms. These rooms have not been upgraded for 20 years and IT’s TIME! New lighting fixtures have already been donated, thank you, Jesus! We’ll need to cover installation costs, new carpet throughout, new furniture, and of course fresh paint. Our kids deserve clean, vibrant, fresh spaces to learn and grow in their relationship with God. The updated classrooms will also be used for various small groups throughout the year, as well as rented out for community events in the building. Check out these pics showing the current view vs. what’s possible!

Café Space

Another upgrade God laid on our hearts is to create a more vibrant café space, utilizing the gym/kitchen/café area that we already have. With updated flooring, newer furniture, a latte machine, and willing hearts, we can create a place for community, friendship building, and connections while enjoying a favorite latte, muffin, or snack! Again, check out our current space vs. a picture showing what’s possible!

“Invest in Kingdom Impact”

The Projected Costs for these projects in 2026 is $150,000 (or less). This is more than possible for God to provide through the generosity of the saints in this community! I have “faith” that God will fund the vision that is HIS, and lead people like you to sow generously. Together, we will step into a new season of impact—building spaces that serve families, disciple the next generation, strengthen our ministries, and expand the reach of the gospel. As we unite our faith and resources, we will watch God multiply every gift, exceed every need, and use this church to shine His light brighter than ever before. Thank you for standing with us and believing for God-sized results!
