Generations

“We will tell a future generation the praiseworthy acts of the Lord, his might, and the wondrous works he has performed.”

Psalms 78:4

Every generation has a responsibility to those who follow them. God in His wisdom has entrusted the story of redemption to His people to be passed down through each generation. We are here today because of those who came before us, obediently and sacrificially responding to God’s call.

As we celebrate the multiple generations represented in our church, we build on that history of giving as we work together to leave a legacy for future generations. Our current facility has served us well for almost 30 years, but with the passing of time there is need for renovation. This past year we have been able to utilize our newly renovated Generations Hall and recently opened our new Preschool Wing. Construction is currently underway for much needed and expanded College and Young Adult space. Our next step is to renovate our Worship Center and Commons Area.

It is amazing to consider the possibilities of what God could do as we work together, each one of us committing to seize this moment we have been given for God’s glory and His mission through West Jackson!

2019 Generations Campaign

The Generations Hall is complete and serves as a space for our adult midweek, college midweek, mature adult community group, and other gatherings!

Our renovated Preschool Wing is complete! We’ve enhanced safety by reducing entrances, created a single check-in area for kids/preschool families, and created new spaces to best minister to the youngest attendees of our church.

We’ve brought out-of-date hallways, floors, and bathrooms up to the level of quality found in our other spaces.

These spaces are currently in progress! We’re adding a new adult learning space for college students, young adults, and other community groups to the E-Wing. The Generations Hall Patio is being furnished to add an outdoor meeting space.
