Gift of Facility

Sherwood Park | Completed 2020

PROJECT COST: $0

In 2020, God opened an unexpected door for our church family. After years of declining attendance, Centre Park Church in Sherwood Park had made the difficult decision to close. But their congregation had a strong desire to see their building continue to be used as a church, rather than being sold for redevelopment.

They approached Central Baptist Church about taking over the facility and establishing a new congregation in Sherwood Park. After a season of prayer, conversations, and discernment, our church voted to move forward, and the building was transferred to Central at no cost.

This remarkable act of generosity became the foundation for our Sherwood Park site. What could have marked the end of one congregation's story instead became the beginning of a new chapter of ministry, creating opportunities for more people in Sherwood Park to know Jesus and find community.
