We are at an exciting juncture in the life of City Reformed Presbyterian Church! Because of your prayer, commitment, partnership and generosity, we are progressing on a journey to own a permanent church building.
Our hope is to meet deliberately and intentionally with individuals and families to discuss giving to Advancing the Mission before any financial commitments are made. This is a time-consuming process, but one we think is worthwhile as we move forward to advance this mission of City Reformed.
Important Steps in the Process
- Oakland Exploratory Committee (2023 – 2024)
- Saline Purchase and Exploration (September 2024)
- Feasibility Study (March – August 2025)
- Session Committee Continuing to Explore Other Sites (June 2026 – present)
- Individual Giving Conversations (July 2026 – May 2027)
- Stewardship Teaching and Study (Fall 2026)
- Advancing the Mission public campaign (Spring/Summer 2027)
A permanent building will house our offices, Sunday morning worship and children & youth programming. Having a secure location will allow each of these existing ministries to be free from the burdens of constant uncertainty and develop in new organic ways. Developing our own property is part of a larger plan to invest in ministry in the university center and across our region.
Everyone will have the opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to the campaign goal, and we look forward to seeing how the Lord works. If you desire to make a gift early or have any questions, please reach out to our Campaign Manager, Allison Barker at allison@cityreformed.org.
