West Hills Renovation
To those of you who attended last Sunday evening’s all-church meeting: Thank You! It was an encouraging time of prayer, fellowship, and excitement as we discussed the plans for our proposed building renovation. For those of you who were unable to attend: we missed you, but not to worry; all the info you need to stay “in the know” about this important project can be found below! (Note: we will vote on this project and tally all Pledge Cards on Sunday, September 21, at 12:15pm. If you missed last Sunday's meeting, please review ALL information below before then!)
The very best way to make sure you don’t miss anything is by watching the full renovation presentation video attached below.
WHY we're renovating:
Pastor Will covered the “Reason & Vision” for this project in the opening session of our meeting. You can watch his presentation HERE. You can also view / download the “Renovation Proposal” document he references below.
WHAT we're renovating:
Elder (over Facilities) Eric Maupin covered the specifics of the building project in our second session. You can watch his presentation HERE.
You can also view / download the comprehensive “Renovation Punch List” below (please note: we ran out of time to list for you ALL the projects we plan to accomplish with this renovation!).
You can also view all the “Renovation 3D Renderings” below.

HOW we're renovating:
Elder (over Finance) Brad Young covered the million-dollar (well, THREE million-dollar) question, “How are we going to pay for all this?” in our third session. You can watch his presentation HERE. You can view the “Giving Pyramid” he presented below, and find a digital Pledge Card linked below (physical Pledge Cards will be available this Sunday at church, if you prefer).
To give now, click the button below and be sure to select “Capital Expansion Fund” from the dropdown menu.
In Closing:
We rounded out the evening with some time for questions and responses. You can find that concluding session HERE.
If you have additional questions about the project that were not covered Sunday evening, please don’t hesitate to reach out to the Elder Council (or simply reply here, and we’ll put you in touch!). If you would like to sign up to join the “14 Days of Prayer” initiative between last Sunday’s meeting and the vote on September 21st, please email the Prayer Team at prayerteam@westhillsstl.org.
In ALL of this, our sole desire is to continue following the Lord’s leading and will for HIS church here at West Hills. We are hopeful, prayerful, and expectant as we step out in faith together with you into this new and exciting chapter in the life of our church.
May God Get All the Glory!
The WHC Elder Council
