About Our Site
We originally referred to our building on Robertson Road as The Bridge because we wanted people to understand that our goal
is to serve
our community and in doing so, become a Bridge to God.
Ground Breaking was held on August 8, 2004.
Total cost of the project is $3.2 million, about half is financed.
There is about 32,000 square feet including our worship center, school facilities for up to 250 students,
school and church offices and our coffee bar that includes wireless internet access
The lighthouse on top reaches to about 65 feet and is our reminder that we are to help people see
the Light that is Jesus Christ – the Light of the World.
As we grow this building will eventually become the center for our Student Ministries.
The cross that hangs on the wall in the lobby area as you enter the building used to hang on the wall
at the front of the sanctuary on Azle Avenue; it hangs on a stone wall that is similar to the look it had in
its place there. It is called a Celtic cross and combines the symbol of the cross, with a circle. The
cross reminds us of Jesus’ sacrifice, the circle reminds us of the eternal nature of God’s love.
Within the concrete of our building lie many rocks that had scriptures written on them by members of
our church and school. Additionally, there is a Bible encased in the concrete at each corner of the
building, and one directly under where the pulpit stands today. Also, beneath the carpet in the worship
center are written many more verses of scripture. Each of these are reminders that our church is
founded on God’s word – the living person of Jesus Christ and His Holy Spirit.
This facility will allow us to grow to 1500 in worship by utilizing it in at least five services. At that point
we will need to start on the next worship facility.
