Creating Space for More
Alexandra Elim Church is in the process of transforming 15 Ngapara Street to be a modern church facility that would serve the vision of Alex Elim and be a blessing to the people of Central Otago.
We are believing for the project to be completed by the end of 2023, which will be the forty year anniversary of Alexandra Elim. Please see the videos below for more details on our journey. We would love to invite you in partnering with us to see this dream become reality.
Much Grace
Aaron and Sarah
We have consulted with architects, engineers and a quantity surveyor and now feel in a position to begin this project. Our goal is to have Stage One completed by the end of 2023. The funding trusts that we are partnering with will not commit funds to the project until we have the balance of funds raised. This makes the first half of 2023 a key time for fundraising to see this dream become reality.
We have purchased the land and buildings and have a mortgage of approximately $200,000. This is the maximum level of debt we are able to service. We therefore need to raise the total cost of the fit out. Below is our budget to see stage one completed:
Cost of project: $1,250,00
Funds already raised: $410,000
Indicative community grants: $375,000
Pledges: $6,000
Funds to raise: $459,000
As of April 2023, we have raised
63%
of the total cost
