GO BIG is a two-year faith and giving initiative to reach our God-sized vision to build a church for generations.
For 30 years we’ve been building a community with depth of faith, discipleship and relationships for our families, our kids, their kids and beyond. We’ve gone deep--but now God is calling us to go wide and expand our reach to even more people with our message, community and ministries.
WHAT ARE WE DOING?
Our plan is to build a beautiful campus that will become a community hub for Northwest Orlando and beyond. We’ll be in a unique position to launch a Jesus culture where thousands of homes are planned or are in development, and where State Road 429 will bring people from all over Orlando to our front door.
Our new Northwest campus will feature a 600-seat auditorium with gathering spaces for children and youth, ample classroom, meeting venues, and pleasant outdoor gathering environments. But that’s just the beginning. Our future plans include an even bigger auditorium, conference hall, stand-alone dance studio and more!
OUR BIG PLANS
WHY ARE WE DOING THIS?
We have reached the limitations of our current property. Our teams work hard with what we have to serve the volume of people that come through our doors seven days a week. It’s time to create a higher capacity and more functional space.
We know that God can do abundantly more than we can ask or think.
(Ephesians 3:20)
Our first goal is for every person who calls Northwest home to engage in GO BIG and be willing to take a next step of growth in this area of generosity. Whether this is your first time giving or you're already a consistent giver, there is a next step God is asking you to take in this journey.
100% ENGAGEMENT
PRIMARY GOAL
Our secondary goal is to raise the funds to accomplish our GO BIG vision. We are excited to share with you how God is calling us to use this generosity initiative in unimaginable ways. This goal includes $1.8 million for everything you love about Northwest for the next two years and $2 million for building our new church home.
SECONDARY GOAL
$3.8 MILLION
We encourage every person in our church family to participate in a totally new, unified way of giving, called a One Fund.
In the past, you may have participated in a traditional “two-fund” building campaign where you gave to a “General Fund” as well as to a “Building Fund.” Our vision for resourcing GO BIG applies a different approach. The One Fund will resource both our ministries and missions for the next two years as well as building our future Northwest Church home.
- One Fund allows everyone from kids, students and adults to participate
- Someone who is new can contribute to our vision from day one
- An individual or family will have a single generosity number to celebrate
- It focuses us on the vision God has given us to impact our community and beyond with the love and hope of Christ
WHY ONE FUND?
HOW WILL YOU RESPOND?
PRAY FERVENTLY
Pray that God would multiply our efforts to establish a Jesus culture in Northwest Orlando. Pray that He would do abundantly more than we ask or imagine, for His great name.
GROW PURPOSEFULLY
Help us reach our goal of 100% engagement in GO BIG. Attend each Sunday from March 1st through April 5th and engage in the GO BIG study with your Small Group each week.
GIVE GENEROUSLY
Ask God to show you what it looks like to give in a way that changes you. Take whatever steps are necessary to see it through.
“God wants to do something amazing through you that His glory can be seen in.”
