Since arriving in Austin in 2017, we have been dreaming big with God. Our desire is to always be partnering with the Lord in what He is doing and saying for our growing community in a city marked for revival, and our hearts long for the glory of God to be displayed throughout Austin as it is in heaven. Looking back over our journey, we savor the precious memories of how we began, are overwhelmed with gratitude to see where we are now, and are outrageously excited about where we’re going. We cannot thank our Bethel Austin family enough for your authentic love, dedicated service, faithful giving, and most importantly, your yes to Jesus.

As we now approach 2020, there is a tangible momentum of destiny on Bethel Austin for greater expansion. During our one-year anniversary celebration in September with Kris Vallotton, he encouraged us that it’s time to find a place to anchor home. As a father of our house, we value Kris’ insight and are in full agreement we have the green light to respond to the confirmed momentum many of us have been feeling for a while.

As a church committed to being led by the Holy Spirit in all things, we are open to wherever He leads. We feel the Lord has specifically called us to South Austin, and so with this in mind, we have a couple of different scenarios in play. One would be to purchase an existing building in the South Austin area and customize it for our needs. The other is to purchase land that can be developed in phases. As for the location of the land, we are looking predominately on the east side of South Austin due to more cost-effective options and easy transportation access, along with the predicted growth over the next few years, but again, only if the Spirit leads in that direction.

Our greatest desire in this adventure is we want the God story. We want to partner with Him and partner with our Bethel Austin family to write a presence-driven story filled with salvations, equipped believers, miracles, signs, and wonders in a city awakened and transformed by God’s love now and for generations to come.

Will you please join us in writing this God story together? To help kick off our Bethel Austin building fund, we ask that you prayerfully consider making an end-of-the-year donation (tax deductible), and/or a monthly pledge that is separate from your tithes and offerings. This is our kairos moment! We have the right people and now it’s all about moving in faith knowing the Lord will show us the right place and right time to plant permanent roots.

Thank you for your generosity in helping our church establish culture, establish legacy, and establish home. As we build Bethel Austin, we build the Kingdom.
