Vision for Calgary and Surrounding Communities
Our OPPORTUNITY
God’s heart is, and has been, beating for people. At TFH, that is our heartbeat, too. Now, as we have journeyed through several seasons of faith- stretching, financial sacrifice, and providing a place & space for others, God is asking us once again to expand our buildings to prepare for the harvest that is on its way. A harvest that will require us to be at our best in…
“making disciples
and teaching them to
observe all things.”
matthew 28:19-20
SO, HERE WE GO!
We are now going to stretch by expanding
our campus so more people can find new life in Christ.
GOD'S NOT DONE...
BEYOND is our one-year generosity campaign to lead 100% of the people at TFH to a place of 100% trust in God so that we can raise $500,000 to expand our campus.
“Enlarge your house; build an addition. Spread out your home and spare no expense! For you will soon be bursting at the seams.”
Isaiah 54:2-3
BE CHALLENGED,
LEAVE YOUR COMFORT ZONE.
“It was character that got us out of bed, commitment that moved us into action, and discipline that enabled us to follow through.”
Zig Ziglar
How can I RESPOND?
Great question. BEYOND is our 1-year, $500,000 generosity campaign to expand our campus. Imagine how big of an impact we would have if 100% of us rallied together and committed to the Beyond Campaign. Imagine how many lives would be changed forever.
1. Pray
“God, what do you want to do through me?”
2. Participate
We want 100% of people who call TFH their church to participate in an equal level of sacrificial giving.
3. Commit
It’s not about equal commitments, but equal sacrifice. Step out in faith and make a commitment outside of your comfort zone, trusting that with God all things are possible.
MAKE A
COMMITMENT
Commitments begin on December 7th, 2025.
Frequently Asked
questions
What is our goal for BEYOND?
Our goals are two-fold. First, 100% participation in this sacrificial journey, above and beyond current giving. Our second goal is to see $500,000 given over the next one year. If there is a third goal, it would be to pay for this building expansion in cash.
Why Now?
Throughout all of history, God has chosen to work powerfully in challenging times. Even in the history of TFH, God has asked us to make a stretch in uncertain times. It isn’t certain and prosperous times that determine when we conduct campaigns and build buildings, it’s the leading of God.
TFH is about reaching people who are far from God and growing them up in their faith. It’s never been about size. If a lot of people experience life transformation through our church, our church is going to grow. People keep telling others about how God is changing them through relevant biblical teaching that can be applied to real life. Given our mission, we’ll never “arrive”—not until everyone is reached.
How will this affect our current and year-end giving?
Our giving campaigns are derived from the giving campaigns found in the Bible. One of those principles is giving to projects and special needs “over and above” one’s current giving. Thus, a generosity campaign like Beyond or our Legacy are “over and above” asks and thus shouldn’t affect our general budget giving.
Regarding Legacy, we won’t be having a Legacy emphasis at the Calgary campus in 2025, though our other locations will conduct Legacy. So, our Beyond Campaign is stepping into radical faith, extreme generosity, and sacrificial giving that is “over and above.” Those commitments will be one year of giving to our building expansion.
How much is all of this going to cost?
Our goal is to raise $500,000 in one year. Although this amount can seem like a daunting figure, it is reachable with the partnership of all God’s people who have a burden for their community.
Is this a new building or extension of our current building?
When TFH moved into Crystal Creek Homes, we renovated the space to fit what we were able to at the time. We have since been blessed by CCH to expand our Kids Ministry into an attached, above ground, warehouse space. Though an incredible blessing and opportunity, this has created a challenge for creating community, and connection, and ease of access for families and those with mobility issues. This expansion will be an extension to our current kids warehouse space and create a space, above ground and attached for our church community.
What about giving to the under-resourced and to missions?
The unanimous and unwavering commitment of our leadership team is to continuously give to missions, community outreach, and the under-resourced. This has been one of our top values at The Father’s House and this will never change. Because Beyond is a sacrificial and faith-based commitment beyond our tithe, we do not anticipate wavering from our current budgets and giving goals.
Something else to consider: As our church has grown, so has our capacity to give, and our missions-giving has increased proportionally. The progression is obvious. As we grew, so did our own outreach-giving. As we grow even more, we have incredible faith that our giving will continue to increase and accomplish more than we have ever done before!
So, what do you need me to specifically do?
Glad you asked! You should feel no pressure, stress, manipulation, coercion, or worry throughout this journey. We are leaning heavily on the Holy Spirit to guide our entire church body through the days ahead. We want you to:
1) Pray, “God, what do you want to do through me and my family?”
2) Position yourself to be available and willing to do what God asks you to commit to do.
3) Fill out a Commitment Card when it’s time – in obedience to what God tells you to do!
How do I fulfill my commitment?
After you have taken the preparation steps of faith and prayer and arrive at a dollar amount that you are committed to invest over the next 12 months, the commitment can be paid however and whenever works best for you – weekly, monthly, annually, or multiple installments.
Recap it for me?
At The Father’s House, we are always looking for ways that God would have us to expand. To make room. Room for more kids and youth ministries, room for more families to get planted in the house, room for more people to encounter the presence of God, room for more people who are far from God to find life in Christ.
As our Calgary campus grows, we are ready to take the next step toward completing our original master plan and have begun planning our next building. This new space will provide an above ground church, a new 300-seat auditorium where we can more effectively reach our community and those in need of the life changing power of Jesus. There will be additional classrooms for Discover and New Believer’s classes to expand into, as well as a Nursing Mothers Room, additional washrooms and Family Room.
We’re excited for an oversized lobby connecting to our current auditorium, connecting to our Kids Ministry. We will continue to move Beyond being just a church in the city, but a church for the city in a new way.
How do we go on this spiritual journey?
First, don’t think about dollars right now. We just want you to accept the challenge to engage in the journey. Start by praying for people in your life yet to be reached. Pray for what God wants to do in and through you. Let him speak to your heart and simply respond to his leading. Second, take the time to go through the Journey Guide to help you interact with small group discussions, a daily devotional and prayer, and a commitment guide. We’re asking each individual or household to evaluate their priorities and spending, consider their current and future resources, and determine how much could be given above their normal general giving that would reflect true sacrifice.
Everyone can join this journey and be apart of something truly amazing. God wants to multiply the efforts of his people beyond their greatest dreams.
