Your church property may sometimes feel more like a burden than a blessing—maintaining and keeping it up to date can be overwhelming! This is especially painful when you find your congregation’s building standing empty too often, its rich communal spaces underutilized and seemingly begging to be filled with life. With support in navigating the barriers of deferred maintenance and tax and insurance liabilities, you can transform your church property into a vibrant asset for mission and community engagement.

Join or invite someone invested in your church building's usage to our live workshop to explore possibilities and be equipped with concrete steps to turn your church into a living testament to God's love.
