"You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
-Acts 1:8
It all comes back to our mission: We're empowered by God to reach others for Christ.
God is calling us to reach people for Christ in the Twin Cities, greater Minnesota, the Midwest, and yes—even to the ends of the earth. And that reach can look so many different ways.
Maybe you're ready to jump in and go with us—maybe you're curious and just want to know more. Let this page be a starting point. Read on to find out more about our current expansion efforts, what we're praying for, and how you can be involved.
Current Expansion Effort: GO
Jesus gave his followers a pretty straightforward mission: GO and reach people for him. And our mission remains the same to this day. But this requires faith—faith to go where he sends us, even when the future is unknown, the story is still unwritten. God knows, and so we go.
What are we praying for? Right now, a permanent home for our Rochester campus, as well as any other opportunities that may arise. Our Rochester campus currently meets in the Mayo Civic Center. Historically, when we move a mobile campus into a permanent location, three-times the amount of people walk through the doors!
And God continues to surprise us with other opportunities. We're humbled when an existing church expresses their readiness to pass the baton, inviting us to continue reaching people for Christ in their communities. Another opportunity may be purchasing land where we desire to build a permanent location in the future. As long as God continues to put these opportunities in our path, we will prayerfully consider stepping into them.
These communities are home to a lot of people who need to hear about the love of Jesus, and we need to be ready—but it is incredibly important to us to move forward in any expansion effort debt-free.

Brainerd Lakes & Red Wing, MN
In fall 2024, we launched two new locations in Minnesota, expanding our reach and creating new opportunities to connect with people in these communities. It's both an honor and a humbling experience to witness how God is moving through us, bringing hope and transformation to more lives across the Midwest. We’re excited to see how He will continue to work in these areas and beyond.

Plymouth, MN
Construction is progressing smoothly, and despite major weather delays this spring, we're still on track for a Fall 2025 opening! The building is nearly enclosed, and we’re eager to start interior work, particularly in the auditorium. The main entrance off Maple Grove Parkway is complete, and in the coming weeks, the first layer of asphalt will be poured for the parking lot.
