ICC’S FAITH IS SOARING HIGHER!

A Good Problem
Issaquah Christian Church has a big problem! We’ve run out of room. Due to the growth of our community—Issaquah is the fastest growing city in Washington, and the growth of our church, we need more space. To address this problem, we have embarked up on an ambitious building program.

The Master Plan
Designed to be built in two phases, our Masterplan will take the fullest advantage of the precious acreage we own in the Squak Valley. The first phase (which is presently at the end stages of permitting and should be built in 2008) is a 12,000 square foot multi-purpose facility that we are calling our Friendship Center. It will host our weekly worship services until phase two is completed. The Friendship Center is designed around a full-sized basketball court and will contain a stage, nursery, kitchen, restrooms, and in the near future, our administrative offices. This facility will be used for everything from worship to recreation and will be available to community groups. Additionally, we envision ICC’s Friendship Center to be used as a staging area for community seminars, concerts, and emergency relief efforts.

Phase two is a 14,000 square foot, two-story Worship and Education Center. The upper floor will contain our new sanctuary, nursery, restrooms, and meeting area. The lower floor will house our classrooms, workrooms, and additional restrooms.

The entire site will be landscaped to enhance its beauty and function. From paved parking and sidewalks to an enlarged play ground and natural amphitheater, ICC will be a wonderful destination for worship, recreation, and relaxation.

Soaring Higher
The entire project is being funded by the free-willing offerings of ICC members. We are presently in the midst of a three-year capital stewardship campaign called Soaring Higher. During this campaign, we are, as individuals and families, contributing over and above our usual weekly tithes and offerings to see this dream of a bigger, more functional physical plant become reality. As people join hands with us in ministry, we invite them to share in the exciting vision that is Soaring Higher.
