New City Team Visits Tanzania
A small team visited The Timothy Initiative's ministry in Tanzania
“Jesus came and told his disciples, “I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”
Matthew 28:18–20

Frequently Asked Questions
More Information
We believe God has given us an incredible vision for the future of New City. In the next 3 years, we hope to raise 48 million dollars to support this vision.
This means we will need to trust God in big ways together. This number includes three years of operational costs and phases one and two of our vision.
Join us in praying for what your part will be in what God is doing at New City and make a big faith commitment toward our goal.
Here
We will take the first steps in reimagining our SouthPark location and enhance our Matthews location to increase our capacity to reach our neighbors.
Near
We will collaborate with local partners who share Jesus and make a difference in areas of pain in our city. Church & City, a counseling center, addresses mental health needs in our congregations and beyond. We also partner with Congregations for Kids, Isaiah 117 House, and FARM127 as they work to address the foster care crisis in the greater Charlotte area.
Far
We will plant 2,000+ churches in East Africa with our global partner, The Timothy Initiative, and support several ministries of mercy to demonstrate the love of Jesus in East Africa and around the world.
Everything you love at New City: worship and Bible teaching, ministries for adults, kids, and students, operations expenses and global and local ministry partnerships to advance mental health and foster care.
Preconstruction and construction costs, administrative fees and expenses, architect and general contractor, FF&E (furniture, fixtures, and equipment) for renovations and new worship center building

Setting Goals for Our Vision
While we are making physical changes to our spaces, the focus of each one is about people. Reshaping our NextGen and Worship space at SouthPark will allow you to invite your neighbors to find and follow Jesus.
We also plan to improve our Matthews space, investing in a coffee shop to strategically engage our neighbors and moving the Church & City counseling facility to City Co-Op to help meet the needs of our city's mental health crisis.
100% Engagement
Something special happens when your generosity journey and your discipleship journey come together, and we want to see that for our whole congregation. Our primary goal is for 100% of the New City family to join Here, Near, & Far.
$48 Million
$48 Million is a God-sized number that will help us expand God’s Kingdom and grow our individual faith in the process. When every person at New City lives out radical generosity that reflects dependence on God, we know it will powerfully advance the work he is doing in and around us. Our goal is not to carry any long-term debt on these projects. We have the option of taking facility-related debt if needed, but we hope our church’s generosity empowers us to move forward without it.
