The Meridian Christian Church recently celebrated its 20,000 square foot facility addition by holding its first service in the building.
“This is our first building of any kind,” says Rick Stacy, pastor with the Meridian Christian Church. “This was perfect for the future grow of our ministries and youth program.”
The 16-year-old organization got its start in Meridian Mall, then moved its services to Chippewa Middle School. This is the first time parishioners have worshiped in a place of their own.
The Meridian Christian Church also acquired an 11,000 square foot children’s center from the Okemos Christian Center (OCC). The Meridian Christian Church moved some services into the former OCC building in October.
Stacy says they hope to have a youth center in the facility as well as a worship center and gym. Right now the gym houses the church’s large motor skills preschool program.
The church’s former address is 2630 Bennett Road. The new address is 2600 Bennett Road.
