The Building Plan   (Click Here for Plan Updates)

Introduction from Pastor Larry Frakes

Dear Church Family:

It is obvious by now that something truly significant is about to happen at Cool Spring. That significant something is a new 29,000 square foot, state-of-the-art Children’s Building, and we need your help!

In conjunction with this exciting new project, we will retrofit our existing facilities into a new Student and College Age area. The existing children’s facility then becomes educational space for adults. Additionally, we will pay off our existing building debt in full.

The net result of these projects will open up our facilities for hundreds of new persons God knows will be moving into our immediate community and challenge us to find new ways of reaching them for Him!

As your Senior Pastor, I want to ask you to do three things to bring this endeavor to a successful conclusion. First, I would ask you to become a cheerleader for all these projects. Read the plan information, attend the informational meetings, encourage others to attend and be informed. Second, be openly supportive to what our church family is doing by daily praying for your pastoral staff and other church leaders who are guiding the process. Talk it up to the rest of our family.  And third, prayerfully consider what God would have you do as you consider your commitment to our “Growing Together  - Building in Faith” Campaign.

This is a defining moment in the life of Cool Spring Church. know that you will join me and be faithful in doing what God leads us to do. Thank you for allowing me the joy of serving the Lord and you during these exciting days.

Your Pastor and Friend,

Larry Frakes
