  • NEW BEGINNINGS 
       
     

        After 27 plus years at the same location, the Aloha Christian Church has made a physical move to a new location at the Cornelius Pass Business Park. The old location had served us very well.  There were anniversaries, receptions, and community functions, to name but a few.  And memories, lots of memories.  As time went on though, the zoning rules changed and we found that we could not expand the building any more.  The maintenance was also becoming more difficult, with two acres of field to mow, and an aging building to attend to.  
       
    After much deliberation and prayer it was decided to sell the property and relocate close by.  We found that buying property and building again was a far bigger burden than we wanted to bear, so it was decided to lease space in an industrial/commercial setting.  A task force visited several churches already utilizing flex space.  This concept would allow our congregation to concentrate more on ministering to the needs of the community rather than having to also deal with the constraints of owning and maintaining physical property.
        After searching the area for possibilities, we settled on the Cornelius Pass location.  It was within the limits of distance we desired to stay in; it has a wonderful frontage on the main road, lots of available parking, and the space is very easily modifiable to meet our needs.  Plus, there is room for possible expansion in the future if we find we need to.

       
    There was sadness in leaving the old facility.  But the old site also will have new beginnings.  There will be new townhomes built on the site that will meet the needs of a growing community.   

    We are excited about the possibilities at our new location.  So drop by to visit us and watch what God has in store as we change and grow.
