Estimated Value of the BUILD Projects
Based on our projections in the summer of 2021, this is the estimated project value:
This is the value of the Central Campus expansion excluding the portion which is being funded by Global ministries; Global Ministries is partially funding the expansion because the Centre for the City is an extension of our Global Ministries. The interior of the 4th floor is not being developed at this time.
This is the value of the Bearspaw Campus excluding the Land (which was donated to Centre Street Church) and excluding the value of Land Servicing (which was funded from a different budget). Land Servicing covers underground utilities, roads etc.
Capital Upgrades to enhance the ministries at Bearspaw Campus, Airdrie Campus and South Campus.
Global Capital Projects. Ten Percent (10%) of donations to BUILD are allocated to Global Capital Projects which include local, national, and international projects including a church called Reconciliation Road in South Africa, four churches in Ukraine, a Ministry Centre in SE Asia and a church we hope to build with our partners in Quebec. A portion of this is funding construction of the Centre for the City which will have space in the Central Campus expansion.

We have $2.5 million more to go to complete payment for these projects and we hope to reach that goal by or before the fall of 2025.
We praise God for how we’ve been able to invest funds prior to needing to pay contractor invoices. Interest from these investments and other sources of funds are also helping to pay for these projects.
