buy and fix up
The opportunity to buy and renovate our new Ministry House close to the Kansas State University campus (at 2000 Claflin Road) came quickly! It is amazing how God brought this together, through generous people. Now, we are seeing person after person encountering Him - and finding true community - in this place.
We closed on the property in May 2021, and spent the first summer opening up a big room suitable for meals, classes, youth and campus ministry gatherings, and more. The next summer we did many more updates and renovations to help make this an amazing environment for indoor and outdoor activities alike. Now there is a new and wide open kitchen, and a refreshed living area where four of our members reside.
Goals
Our down payment was $80,000.
Then, additional funds were given for the renovation:
FAITH GOAL 1 $50,000 (reached)
FAITH GOAL 2 $75,000 (reached)
FAITH GOAL 3 $100,000 (reached!)
NEXT PROJECT: $25,000 for expanded parking and basketball court, and updated heating/cooling system
We would also like to pay off the remaining $260,000 mortgage balance as quickly as possible. (Over $40,000 has been paid down so far.)
