A building is a tool to accomplish vision for the Body; not a vision unto itself. Hope's vision/mission is to help people meet Christ and Grow in Him. We want to present Christ to our suburban Chicago, post-millenial community in a highly relevant way. We want to come to YOU, our community, not ask you to come to US.

To facilitate the next stage of growth towards this vision, Hope has purchased 24 acres of prime property in Frankfort Illinois. Chicago Architects McBride, Kelly & Bauer have developed a 3-phased building project that includes a Phase 1 construction of 56,000 square-foot multi-purpose building that includes office, classroom, nursery space. A 900-seat worship space can be converted to mid-week activity/gym use.

These are preliminary plans. Changes in our understanding of the needs of the ministry may change parts of this plan or the timing of the plan, but the desire to reach our community for Christ in the most effective way, will stay constant!
