The Journey
2013 – Current facility paid off. At that time, our Pastor's Council did not feel the Holy Spirit's leading to immediately begin the process of saving funds toward expansion. Rather, in keeping with our missions focus, we launched a Generosity Journey in 2013 that saw the church family give generously to support various needs in Beaumont and across the province, including families facing economic and natural disaster-related challenges, and community capital and service projects.
2015 – Faith Expansion Capital Campaign Begins. Following God’s leading, Pastor’s Council and our Core Team members decided in 2015 to begin saving for the facility expansion on this property that He gave us to steward and use for His work.
2022 – Debt vote. On July 19, 2022, 79% of Eaglemont Church Core Team Members voted 84% in favour of incurring a debt load of up to $3.85 million for the construction of the building expansion.

August 7, 2022 – Our church family gathered outside, where ground would be broken, to pray for and bless the site before construction began.
Late August 2022 – Construction began on the building expansion.
The Faith Expansion Journey
We see the expansion simply as one more tool to help us reach more people for Christ. Even though a building will be an outcome of planning and saving funds, this Faith Expansion journey is about more than a building. It’s about serving and reaching as many people as possible for Christ and expanding our faith along the way.
Listen to Eaglemont Church’s Office Administrator, Maureen Small, share a brief but powerful message about the significance of making a faith commitment with the vision of reaching those who do not yet know Jesus Christ. And listen to Heather Lastiwka, a member of our church family and former Faith Expansion Capital Campaign Director, also share about the journey of faith expansion, the importance of building for the future and the prayerful role we all need to play in that.
