Over the past year, we\u2019ve grown by nearly 2,000 people. What a blessing! With that growth, we\u2019ve also outgrown our current space.

We agree that missions and serving others are a very important part of who we are.

Our growth is not limited to Sundays. We are also seeing growth in midweek ministries, classes, and events.

We are committed to church planting and continually evaluate participating in new church plants. At the same time, the growth we are seeing is happening right here in Colorado Springs. This opportunity would allow us to support that growth with excellence while keeping our church family together and connected under one roof.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

We believe God is calling Trace to a personal connection and gathering of the church. While multi-site can be an effective ministry method, we believe in this season that Trace is called to leading with in-person gatherings, which now requires more space as we grow.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

Our growth has outpaced this as an option. While we investigated it carefully, it would only be a temporary solution to a long-term need. Leasing the building doesn\u2019t address the space required for the growth we\u2019ve already seen or the growth we believe is still ahead.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t
