“Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back."
– Isaiah 54:2
Creating space for God’s Kingdom to grow.
About
Over the last few years at Parkwood, we’ve witnessed incredible things happening in our church. It’s clear that God is moving among our people. Today, our reach and influence are stronger and further than ever before, and we give God the praise. We’re now in a season of unprecedented growth, which brings with it a natural challenge — the size of our building. While our auditorium was built in the 1980s to host large gatherings, the rest of our facilities were not designed with this kind of growth in mind.
In the past couple of years, our student ministries—kids, youth, and young adults—have experienced radical growth. The challenge we face now is space. Limited room means that on Sundays we sometimes have to turn families away from our kids’ programs, and our youth and young adult ministries have little capacity to grow further. We believe God is pouring out His Spirit on the next generation, and expanding our church will allow us to create the space where lives are transformed and more students come to a saving knowledge of Jesus.

Kim & Jeremy | May 26, 2024
Our son Milo wanted to do what he could to raise money for the food bank and youth expansion project. He held a lemonade, bake sale, and food drive this past weekend and raised $443 and a large bag of grocery items for the Food Bank. He is blown away by how kind humanity can be. He wanted to try his hardest to do his part for God's glory.

Pastor Danny announced that we will be expanding our church by building a new youth centre, larger children’s ministry space (Kid City), and larger food bank. After the service, two children came to the kiosk where I was answering questions and donated $10 and $20.

The original plan to help pay for the expansion included selling a piece of unused land for $1,085,000. During the Annual Business Meeting in April, the members voted against selling the land, which meant we needed to raise those funds through our church fundraising efforts. We also received several questions asking if the new space was large enough. We did our due diligence and asked our architect to give us a larger version of the floor plan. As we braced ourselves for the shock of the new price tag, the price came back $1,100,000 less than the original estimate. Whenever anyone asks for more, the estimate is never lower – EVER. This miracle can only be attributed to God.
Parkwood Youth | May 8, 2024
Our youth ministry is very excited for the expansion. They have started a regular process of collecting for the expansion every Wednesday and Friday when they meet.
