“New Ground” is about refusing to coast on yesterday’s victories. It’s a declaration that LifePoint isn’t settling but moving forward with vision and faith. It represents both physical and spiritual expansion. This means new leaders being trained and sent, new spaces being built, new teams strengthened, and new generations inspired.
New Ground Pillars
Pressing On Through People
Every great move of God is carried on the shoulders of prepared leaders. Our Residency Program exists to identify, equip, and release the next generation of pastors, communicators, and ministry innovators.
Residents receive theological training, hands-on ministry experience, and personalized mentoring that shapes both skill and soul. They emerge ready to plant, to preach, to lead, and to serve wherever God calls.
Legacy is multiplication. We’re not just filling roles — we’re forming leaders who will take new ground long after us.
Pressing On Through Space
New ground requires literal ground. Our Land Expansion initiative is about making room for what God wants to do next. This will requite a new facility equipped with ministry environments that welcomes families, students, and seekers.
This is more than construction; it’s cultivation. We’re preparing a campus that becomes a spiritual home for the next decade of stories God will write through LifePoint.
Legacy is preparation. We’re clearing the soil today for the harvest tomorrow.
Pressing On Through Team
To reach more people, we must strengthen the people who lead. Our Sta Expansion initiative strategically adds key team members across ministry, creative, and community areas.
Each addition expands capacity, deepens care, and accelerates mission. It’s about building a healthy, high-impact team that can sustain growth while staying true to our culture and calling.
Legacy is capacity. Because vision travels at the speed of leadership.
Pressing On Through Generations
This isn’t just a renovation - it’s a renewal. We’re re-imagining the environments where kids encounter God, creating vibrant, welcoming spaces that spark imagination, joy, and faith.
From refreshed classrooms and creative play areas designed for connection, every detail helps kids feel known, inspired, and at home. Behind the expansion is a strong foundation — enhanced safety features, updated check-in systems, and smart technology that make these spaces both secure and seamless for families.
We’re not just upgrading rooms; we’re cultivating environments where wonder, worship, and belonging can grow for years to come.
Legacy is cultivation and care. God’s not done shaping the future through our kids.
Pressing On Through Compassion
The Church does not exist for itself. We exist to embody the love of Jesus in the places where hope feels thin and need feels heavy. Our Outside Our Walls Expansion is about strengthening the bridge between our faith and our city, so more lives encounter grace, dignity, and opportunity.
This year, we are stepping into deeper partnership and greater presence. We will help The Bridge Receiving Center launch a dedicated Teen Center, creating a safe space of healing, belonging, and support for vulnerable youth in our region.
We will continue fueling global impact through Convoy of Hope and Homes of Hope, expanding practical relief, sustainable development, and Christ-centered care around the world. Locally, we will sustain and grow collaboration with food banks and the Marysville Salvation Army, ensuring families in crisis receive not only help, but hope.
This is not charity; it is obedience. Jesus sends His Church outward — into the margins, into the needs, into the world He loves.
Legacy is mission carried forward. We are building beyond our walls so the love of Christ can reach far beyond our footprint.
LAND EXPANSION
We have a remarkable opportunity before us: the potential to purchase 10 acres at the intersection of Highway 9 and Highway 92 and create a permanent home for the future of LifePoint. This isn’t just about combining locations or building a facility. It’s about planting roots in a place that positions us for the future. A visible, accessible, permanent campus would give us the space to serve the next generation, welcome more families, and continue creating environments where Jesus makes life change happens. We believe this could be part of the New Ground God is inviting us to step into.
