MAKERS Church has a new idea

 

North Park Baptist dates back to the 1930s before it merged with Makers Church (formerly Mosaic Church) in 2019. At the time of the merger, Makers Church pastor Derrick Miller said the church building on Bancroft Street was facing many issues of deferred maintenance.

A century-old church in North Park at 3810 Bancroft St. has renovations underway after selling six rental houses on a lot to fund the project. Beyond much-needed updates and repairs, Makers Church will add a child care center, event venue, co-working space and coffee shop to the campus so it will serve the community daily, rather than just a few times a week. These will also add income streams to secure the church’s future. The construction is expected to be completed by fall 2024.
