Defining Moments is a two-year strategic giving initiative for the future of Christ Community Church and the kingdom in Gainesville. We plan to develop the rest of our property and to build an addition to our current building. We want to create a space for others to be invited to Christ’s banquet while also holding on to the distinctives that have made Christ Community such a beautiful place to belong.

Update on Defining Moments:

Exciting progress continues on our Defining Moments construction project! The children's hallway is nearly complete, creating a welcoming new space for families. This Sunday, you might notice a temporary wall and doorway in place of the old glass door. When construction is complete, that will be removed to tie the spaces together as one building. Staining of the tongue-and-groove wood is underway, and installation has begun on the wood ceiling, bringing warmth and character to our new sanctuary. Outside, asphalt work has been completed, marking another major milestone in the project. Thank you for your continued patience and support as we move closer to completion.

Defining Moments Stories

Expanding Our Facilities

Not only are we making room for the growth we’ve experienced over the past several years, but we are building something for generations to come. We’ve been intentional about designing a space that suits us in a unique way and fits this vision for what we are becoming. Download our digital booklet to learn more.

An Addition

Our consultants and design team have provided a solution for our growth that will not require us to move out of our current facilities or interrupt weekly worship services. This addition will also allow us to develop the second half of our property.

Room for Hospitality

We long to create room for hospitality. An expanded lobby and patio will create ample space to gather, while additional bathrooms, meeting space for adults and children's check-in areas will facilitate more possibilities for connection.

A Sanctuary

The addition includes a 600-seat sanctuary. When we first developed our property, we constructed a large room that was deliberately multi-purpose. This space, where we have worshipped each Sunday since 2010, can now be designated as multi-purpose.

Get Involved

We hope that this spring will be a time of spiritual renewal for Christ Community Church. With God's help, we will continue to grow through this initiative. These are ways to engage with Defining Moments:

Pray

Leadership has been praying over this for many months, and we ask everyone to join us in seeking God's face. The campaign booklet provides prayer prompts for each week.

Envision

From January 21 to February 25, we had a sermon series on "Feasting with Jesus." These weeks helped illustrate the need and opportunity that we have as a church in this defining moment. Explore the series here.
