Father, we ask you for Godly wisdom in all the details and at every point in this transition process and throughout the course of owning this building.

Father, we ask for Christlike humility at every turn and in every heart throughout this transition process and throughout our entire time in this new building.

Father, we ask for a Holy Spirit ignition and re-kindling of passionate intentionality for the mission of God in and through Mercy Village Church.

Father, we ask for divine provision during this transition process and as we own this building and three categories. Action (hands for the task), Resources (all that we need), Timeliness (finished by May 18).

We're seeking to raise $30,ooo to cover transition cost. The building is in great shape, but it is still over 6o years old. The primary cost we'll be transforming the cafeteria/half-gym into our auditorium, but all of the money will go to help make the space safe, clean, and useable for our church and community. 

Goal: Finalize auditorium and make rest of space clean, safe, and functional.
Timeline: We desire for our first Sunday in the new space to be May 18th.
Fundraising: We desire to raise $30k from church planting networks, other churches, outside donors who love our church, and one-time gifts from our members and regular attenders.

Goal: Build out and beautify the space to make it ours.
Timeline: From move-in day onward. As we go and ongoing.
Fundraising: We will cash-flow this along the way.

Goal: Build a full-size gymnasium for community use, hosting meals, and even holding larger gatherings (i.e. Easter Sunday)
Timeline: TBD (soon after we are settled physically and stabilized financially).
Fundraising: We desire to raise <$200k from our local community (businesses and individuals) who will benefit from the space.
