Our design and construction committees are hard at work finalizing construction documents in an effort to have bids ready for review by October for our FORWARD campus transformation. With a goal of construction beginning in April 2024, our dedicated volunteer committees are busy behind the scenes. If you’re looking for a way to get involved, you’re in luck! This fall, we’re looking for volunteers to help clean up storage spaces and begin planning for relocated worship services. Contact a FORWARD committee member or Pastor Tiefel if you’re willing to help. 

We are so grateful for the continued support of the FORWARD project. This spring, voters passed three key issues that allowed our committees to continue their work on the renovation project. This recognition of the need for updated space and the belief that our congregation will be able to financially sustain these updates was inspiring and has renewed our energy and focus in ensuring this is a space everyone can worship for many generations. The project budget has been set at $6.2 million and the terms of our project loan have been secured, though no funds have yet been borrowed. We have been blessed with $1.2 million in gifts to date. If you want to learn more about the project or make a gift, contact Pastor Tiefel at 920-982-5444.  

  All families are invited to join us at Hatten Park for JAM in the Sand! 'Jesus and Me' is geared toward children aged 5 and under. During the summer, siblings are encouraged to come! We will have a devotion, a story, and time to play and visit for children and adults! JAM in the Sand! will be held June 13 and 20, July 11 and 19, and August 9 from 10:30-11:30am. This is a wonderful opportunity to surround yourself and your children with Jesus and His great creation! Bring your family, friends, and neighbors!

Now that summer is in full swing, it’s a great time to get updated on our Forward campaign in preparation for a busy fall. We’ve been so grateful for your support- through financial commitments, prayers, encouragement, and participation in the renovation. The biggest announcement we have at this time is that construction is now set to begin in April 2024. This extension to our original plan allows us to ensure more stable lead times in securing materials and also to coordinate campus activities to better suit our needs. Rather than relocating worship during both Christmas and Easter, we are expecting the most disruption during slower times in our calendar year. We look forward to providing additional updates as they develop. In the meantime, you can learn how to get involved with the FORWARD project by contacting Pastor Tiefel.

Great news! After much anticipation, voters have approved three critical votes to move forward with the renovation and expansion project for our beloved campus. The budget for this ambitious project is set at $6.2 million, with an impressive $1.2 million already received in gifts. Construction is slated to commence in April 2024, ensuring stable lead times and coordination of all activities around busy days such as Easter and Christmas. The design and construction committees are working diligently towards final documents by August, with bids ready for review by October. This is a remarkable opportunity for devoted volunteers to help in the clean-up of storage spaces or the setup of worship services temporarily relocated from the sanctuary. Continued support through prayers, encouragement, participation, and financial commitments is critical for the success of this vital renovation.  Let's all come together and continue supporting our community to bring about a brighter future for o...
