Landmark Cafe: Second Floor Expansion + HVAC Fix

Legacy Initiative: For the Church After Us
In 1879, this island was purchased and founded as a Christian seaside resort & meeting place. Our plan is to bring the island back to those roots through eternal investments.
La Misión
This is our vision for the future.
In a world full of isolation & loneliness, we aspire to be a bridge that leads people to Biblical community and relationship.
In a culture of lies & misinformation, we want to be a pillar of Biblical truth to educate the generation of today and the generation to come.
In our unique geographical area of the North East, where hearts are cold and belief in self is much greater than belief in God, we desire to be a place where the love of Christ is evident and the hope of Christ is received.
And in Ocean City and the surrounding towns, we want to lead the charge of helping our community prosper and experience life by caring for the homeless, widowed, orphaned and needy, and being the voice of truth in the public square.

This Requires Action
Not Action from Some, But from All
God is calling each one of us to pray and consider how we would invest in what needs to be sowed today, so what is reaped down the road has eternal benefit. Want to hear what our Elders said? Watch the video below.

The Part You Play
Ministry Needs & Opportunities
These immediate & long term ministry needs & opportunities fulfill our legacy initiative by expanding our footprint in Ocean City, NJ to do more ministry for the kingdom of God.
Immediate
$80K
Sanctuary HVAC Units (2)
Our current units are 14 years old. One of the units has already stopped working and the others are on their way out. We're seeking to buy two new units to heat and cool our sanctuary.
Long Term
$3.5M
Landmark Storage Inn & Family Life Center Mortgage Pay Down
In order to move to Phase 2 of our Life Center project (phase 1 was the renovation of the Family Life Center), we need to pay down the mortgage of the building our FLC & Storage Inn occupies.
Ideally, as we pay down the mortgage we can continue to remove storage units from the Storage Inn business and replace them with more space for ministry for things like: youth/community space, staff offices, & more.
