The Sanctuary of Elmont is a unique church. We exist to teach people to live and love like Jesus. Throughout the years, thousands of people have passed through our church. Many have been encouraged to follow Jesus with all their heart, but more work must be done. Heart for the House is our official building project campaign to raise funds for a new property that can better serve our family and guests.

WHY NOW?

Within the last year, we have had over 50 new members join our church family. Our worship services and events have been consistently over capacity, highlighting the pressing need for a new building to sustain and further our mission. The current facility no longer adequately accommodates our growing community, hindering our ability to effectively serve and connect with our members. A larger space is needed to support our activities, promote spiritual growth, and enhance our outreach efforts both within the congregation and the broader community. Join us in this crucial endeavor to expand our physical presence and continue our impactful work in fostering faith, community, and compassion.

How will the money be used?

Our vision is to build a state of the art facility, an auditorium with 250-300 seats, with incredible and secure kids space, youth space, classrooms, a mid-size multi-purpose group space for community events, a lobby that will be large enough to accommodate a connect point for people, a small café as a meetup for our guests, an office suite, storage rooms, and a rear parking lot. This spurs effective ministry and growth by providing the facility our church needs.
