The illustration of the new Early Childhood center (see above) provides you with a vision of our proposal for a approximately 20,000 sq ft ministry center located on the North Campus behind the current Early Childhood Center.

This center will consist of a multi-purpose room (for worship, fellowship dinners, youth activities, group meetings, indoor play area, and school lunch), a covered colonnade in the front, and a back patio that will open up into the North Field. Around the perimeter of this large gathering space will be ample storage areas, a kitchen, and sufficient restrooms.

In a separate wing along-side the multi-purpose building, 9 new classrooms (many larger than our current classrooms), a large main school entrance, reception area and school offices and workrooms will be included.

Our current Early Childhood Center will not be touched until the new facility can be inhabited. During this time new parking will replace the old structure and landscaping will reinvigorate the entire area.

With three-year pledges from our members to underwrite this project, we hope to break ground on the Early Childhood Center in the fall of 2007. The total estimated cost is approximately 4.5 million dollars.
