Highlights

The new 44,720 square foot building can be used for a variety of different activities, and

Trevecca partners and supports the local Nazarene College for anything from rehearsals to

large events. The worship center is state-of-the-art and features enhanced sound and video

capabilities. The building also features a nursery, full-service kitchen, � reside room, upscale

café and a basement area that can be used for expanding ministries to the poor, allowing

Trevecca to actively engage and support their surrounding community.

Results

Since the completion of Phase 2, Trevecca Community Church has seen its membership grow

from 500 to over 900, with the facility and ministries helping to provide exposure to new

people and students every week. Trevecca has become a tremendous resource for both the

neighboring college and the community that they serve.

“Working with The McKnight Group has been a great blessing. They understand ministry and the dynamics of relationships that are essential to a church being the church. That understanding translates into designs that foster relationships and accomplish effective ministry. Added to this is the high level of integrity and professionalism The McKnight Group brings to the table. I not only would recommend them to any church considering a building project, I would also work with them again in the future should the opportunity arise.”

- Dr. Dwight Gunter, Senior Pastor

The leaders of Trevecca Community Church have a substantial vision of

growth for their church and membership. Their mission is to glorify God

by building bridges between the Trevecca Community and the world

beyond. To achieve this mission and vision, they realized the need

for a functional building that was inviting to others and capable of

supporting new ministries that would help reach the surrounding

Nazarene community.

With the initial building costs rising beyond Trevecca’s available

budget, church leaders worked with The McKnight Group to develop a

master plan and approach building in phases, allowing the church to

plan and coordinate fundraising efforts in stages for manageability.

In 2003, The McKnight Group started Phase 1, which consisted of

remodeling the existing worship center and adding a new of� ce wing

at the front of the building. In 2007, Phase 2 saw increased expansion:

the demolition of an old building and the construction of a large,

� exible multi-ministry space.
