Phase 1 has been completed (offices, classrooms, a kitchen, bathrooms, fellowship hall) and they're discussing fundraising for building Phase 2. It will include a sanctuary, classrooms, and offices.
Estimated cost? $23 MILLION

scary. My family used to go to Vienna Presbyterian - that monster church across from Jammin Java...we left when they started doing the huge building project. I don't remember how much it was costing them exactly, but it was an even bigger number than that. What's wrong with a little building that gets the job done? Why not raise the $23 million and then put it towards charity, or any of the things you've mentioned here?
