Sherwood Park | Upcoming — Phase 1

2026 ESTIMATE: $595,000

Our Sherwood Park congregation continues to grow, and our immediate priority is transforming the basement into more welcoming and effective spaces for ministry.

The basement is already heavily used for kids ministry, our partner preschool, and a variety of midweek gatherings. Phase 1 will provide improved kids ministry classrooms, nursery space, storage, and flexible gathering areas for youth ministry, fellowship, and community events.

Together with our renovated kitchen, these improvements will strengthen hospitality and allow us to make much better use of the space throughout the week.

This is about much more than renovating a basement. It's about creating places where kids grow in faith, youth build lasting friendships, families find community, and neighbours feel welcomed.

As the first step in our three-phase development plan, this project will strengthen the ministries already happening here while preparing us for continued growth.

Sherwood Park | Upcoming — Phase 2

2026 ESTIMATE: $950,000

As our Sherwood Park congregation grows, we're planning for additional worship space and improved accessibility throughout the building.

Phase 2 will expand the auditorium by approximately 60 seats, creating room to welcome more people to worship together. A new elevator will connect the main floor and basement, making our kids ministry, fellowship areas, and other gathering spaces more accessible.

This phase will also provide additional youth ministry space, along with rooms for staff and leadership meetings.

Building on the basement transformation of Phase 1, these improvements will help us accommodate a growing congregation and make our facility more accessible and functional throughout the week.

Our desire is for everyone who comes through our doors to be able to participate fully in the life of our church.

Connors Hill | Upcoming

2023 ESTIMATE: $180,000

Over the past several years, we've been replacing the aging roof sections at Connors Hill to address leaks and protect our facility.

The gym roof was completed in 2019, followed by the sanctuary roof in 2022. The final remaining section is over the foyer on the south side of the building.

This project will replace the aging roofing system and update the flashing, completing a major renewal of the building's roof.

Although largely unseen, this work is essential to protecting our facility and the significant investments already made through Building Together, ensuring our ministry spaces remain safe and reliable for years to come.

McDougall | Upcoming — 2027

Restoring McDougall's historic exterior brickwork has been one of the most significant investments in preserving this century-old facility.

Approximately one-third of the brickwork was restored before Central acquired the building in 2025, and we completed another third in 2026. The final phase, planned for 2027, will address the remaining exterior masonry.

This work involves repairing damaged bricks, removing deteriorated mortar and inappropriate past repairs, and repointing the masonry to protect the building from further deterioration.

While much of this work is about long-term maintenance rather than creating new ministry space, it is essential to protecting the building we've been entrusted with. Completing the exterior restoration will be a major milestone in preserving McDougall's historic beauty and preparing it to serve future generations.

Connors Hill | Upcoming

2018 ESTIMATE: $250,000

Several essential mechanical systems at Connors Hill are approaching the end of their expected service life, including the sanctuary air handling unit, boiler, and gym air handling unit.

Replacing this aging equipment will improve reliability, help prevent unexpected failures, and maintain comfortable, functional spaces for worship, ministry programs, and community gatherings.

While these systems are mostly hidden from view, they are critical to the daily operation of our facility. Addressing them proactively is an important part of caring for the building and protecting its ability to serve ministry for years to come.

Connors Hill, Southeast, Sherwood Park & McDougall | Upcoming

2023 ESTIMATE: $100,000 (Original Three-Site Plan)

Clear, visible signage helps people find our facilities, identify entrances, and feel welcome when visiting for the first time.

Our original plan included new signage near Connors Road and the east entrance at Connors Hill, improved visibility facing Summerside at Southeast, and permanent exterior signage and a west-facing cross at Sherwood Park.

With the addition of McDougall, we're also planning appropriate signage for our new downtown congregation.

These improvements will make our buildings easier to recognize and navigate, helping people connect with the ministries and communities gathering inside.

The 2023 estimate reflects the original three-site plan. Specific projects and costs will be updated as plans develop.

Connors Hill | Upcoming

2018 ESTIMATE: $60,000

Over the past several years, Building Together has transformed significant portions of our Connors Hill facility. One of the remaining priorities is bringing the exterior grounds together through a coordinated landscaping plan.

These improvements would complement the renovated building, enhance the appearance of our property, and create a more welcoming environment for guests and neighbours.

Thoughtful landscaping is one of the finishing touches that will help complete the renewal of Connors Hill, reflecting our desire to care well for our facility and extend a warm welcome to the surrounding community.
