FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I know God is leading Discovery to build a Sanctuary?
During the history of Discovery, God has clearly opened up opportunities that show His hand is on Discovery.
God provided securing our first meeting space at Fairgrove Church when the pastor refused to consider it numerous times, relocating to the CVCC campus after having been told ‘no’ seven times and purchasing the land on Startown after it had been sold!

Why can’t we continue in our current worship center?
• We are experiencing overcrowding to the degree that families aren’t able to sit together. In addition, limited seating creates an unwelcoming environment.
• Our bathrooms, children’s areas, and ministry spaces are insufficient to accommodate our growing numbers and limit our effectiveness to do Kingdom work.
What are we building and how much is it going to cost?
• We are building a 42,000 square foot building that will include a worship center with seating for 850-1000 people as well as spaces for Discovery Kids programs, classrooms for adults,administrative office space, and an enlarged café area to expand our hospitality capacity and create a welcoming environment.
• The total cost is approximately $8 million which includes construction, site work, furniture, fixtures, and equipment.
• The current campaign goal is $2 million which will allow us to get started on the building and secure a loan in order to finish it; but, another campaign will likely occur during the building phase. The remaining balance will be funded by a loan at the end of the construction.
What will happen to our current worship center?
• It will be used to expand the youth program, as it can function as a gym, and be a venue for a variety of youth activities.
• There will also be spaces for additional adult classes and smaller community activities.

What can I do to be a part of Imagine N∙O∙W, and when do I need to decide?
• The first step is to pray for God to reveal Himself to you and to guide you in your decision to invest in the future of Discovery Church.
• On Commitment Sunday March 24, you will have the opportunity to make a two-year commitment, over and above your regular giving, to help make God’s plan for Discovery become a reality.
What if I still have questions?
• The Imagine N.O.W Executive Team Members are Dean Cline, Smith Sharpe , Sandy Auten,Tanya Turbeville and        Amy Cable. You can contact the church office at (828) 855-2200 to get information to connect to the appropriate person.
