A Season of Abundance and Building
The word came for Abundant Life that “We are in THE season of MORE than Enough and that God is Pouring out Fresh oil for building”. Zechariah 4:6-7 AMP
Our Vision
Abundant Life @ The Grove aspires to be a hub that fosters relationships between the church and the community, that empowers business owners, promotes community engagement, facilitates conferences, and creates memorable moments.
Our Mission
While the vision has been slightly been modified for growth and expansion. We will continue to build God's people with wisdom for life; Healing, Teaching, & Sending them out to go and do the work of the Lord.
What We Aim to Create
Kingdom Hub
A community space allowing churches without designated facilities to hold worship services.
Co-Working Spaces
Affordable individual and shared workspaces to reduce overhead costs, helping entrepreneurs focus on growing their brands.
Conferences
A venue for businesses, community leaders, and churches to host conferences, training sessions, and luncheons.
Weddings
One of the few venues in China Grove that offers a beautiful space for weddings, complete with a commercial kitchen featuring local ingredients and private Bride and Groom suites.
Ghost Kitchen
A rentable kitchen space for pop-up dinners, catering events, and as a commissary kitchen for chefs without their own facilities. Overseen by our ServSafe certified congregation members.
Media/Podcast Rooms
Dedicated spaces for business owners and content creators to produce tailored content, conduct interviews, and record media sound bites for their brands and ministries.
Phase 1
To materialize this vision, we're launching the Give Campaign in multiple phases.
Right now we are aiming to raise the remaining $24,275 needed to settle the architect fees, which are essential for acquiring the necessary permits to continue the building process. Once this goal is met, we will move to Phase 2, which aims to raise $100,000 to complete the upgrades to the fire safety system and other initial renovation tasks for our revamped building layout.
As we progress through these phases, each portion of the project will be broken down into manageable giving phases. Once we achieve our Phase 1 and 2 goals, we will roll out Phase 3 and beyond. These subsequent phases will focus on the broader renovation plan, which is anticipated to cost between $1.5-2 million. The architectural plans will provide a precise estimate of the overall renovation expenses, guiding us through each step of this significant endeavor. Join us as we transform our space and serve the community with enhanced safety, functionality, and purpose.
Kingdom Builders
Contributing to the Kingdom Builder Fund or committing to being a Kingdom Builder is an intentional step toward going beyond our regular tithe and offering. It's an opportunity to invest in the larger vision of expanding God's kingdom here on earth. As Kingdom Builders, we choose to elevate our giving by making additional contributions, demonstrating our commitment to support the growth of our church, outreach initiatives, community projects, and various missions beyond our regular giving. It's about sacrificially sowing into the greater work of God, enabling us to reach farther, impact more lives, and fulfill His purposes in a larger scope.
