THE EXPANSION CHURCH STORY

At Expansion Church, their mission is to point a broken world to a loving God.
It is a vibrant and growing community that primarily reaches young families
between the ages of 25 and 55. In just four short years, the church has
expanded from an average weekly attendance of 70 people to over 450.
Pastor Rock and his wife, Sheterica, were on staff at Christ Fellowship—one of
the largest churches in the country—when they felt God’s call in 2019 to step
out in faith and plant a new church. With support from Christ Fellowship and
in partnership with ARC (The Association of Related Churches), Expansion
Church officially launched on January 24, 2021, as ARC Church Plant number
1016.

The church began as a portable congregation, initially meeting on Saturdays
at a local church—the only organization willing to lease space during the
height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Eight months later, they transitioned to
Sunday morning services at a local high school, though that arrangement
lasted only six weeks. After an intensive search, Expansion Church secured its
current 6,000-square-foot facility, which has since been fully remodeled and
intentionally designed to meet the church’s growing needs.
With a significant influx of people relocating to the state—and especially to
the city—Expansion Church anticipates continued growth. The church
currently welcomes an average of 10–20 first-time guests each weekend and
is actively searching for its next facility, aiming for a space of 20,000 square
feet or more.

At present, the church employs two full-time staff members and several part-
time staff, with plans to add two more full-time positions before the end of
2025 to support its ongoing expansion.
