Building | Parkview Church

the opportunity

We have an incredible opportunity to purchase the property next door, currently Riverside Reformed Church. Our church board has made a conditional offer, which has been accepted. As a growing church, we are already feeling the limitations of our current space. Riverside sits on nearly two acres and includes a church building and a house currently used as a daycare. The property provides 68 additional parking spaces and expanded meeting areas for events, community groups, and Parkview ministries. The Board envisions it as a multi-use space, with a lower-level kitchen and community room ideal for midsize events. It would also meet the growing need for small group space during the week. Existing community groups have expressed interest in continuing to use the building. Additionally, it could serve the wider community through partnerships like the Guelph Food Bank or a clothing closet. We believe God has provided this opportunity at a purchase price well below market value.

the goal

To secure this exciting opportunity, the Board is asking the congregation to raise $300,000, which, together with financing through CIBC and other potential lenders, will allow us to purchase the property. This purchase, conditional on financing approval, inspections, and member approval, will provide the additional space, parking, and resources our growing church needs to expand ministries, host community events, and serve others. We believe this is a God-provided opportunity to invest in both our church and the wider community.
