Let Us Rise Up and Build.
About the building
In 2022 we purchased 5.7 acres of prime real estate on North Clifton Road in Frederick, Maryland. We endeavor to construct, beside a chapel currently on the property, an 11,000 square-foot building containing a 270-seat sanctuary, classrooms, offices, and fellowship area.
The sanctuary will reflect a simple dignity focusing on the centrality of God’s Word in worship. We ask all who are supportive of our ministry to consider investing in our future house of worship.
Yours in Christ,
Peter Kemeny
Pastor

Benefits of a Church Building
At Good News Presbyterian Church, we recognize the importance of having a physical building for our congregation. It serves not only as a place for worship and fellowship, but also as a gathering place for the community.
-
A visible presence in the community. — A visible presence in the community attracts both new seekers and existing members, fostering connections and spreading the love and teachings of our faith to enrich lives and neighborhoods alike.
-
A center for outreach ministries. — Having a church building will allow us to host more programs such as after school clubs for kids, evangelistic Bible studies, homeschool groups, and our Soccer and Bible Camps.
-
A gathering place for meetings, fellowship meals, Bible studies, and informal get-togethers as well as a place to meet up with other church members during the week.
-
A schoolhouse for discipleship with rooms for children’s, youth and adult studies and activities.
-
A permanent church home that will guarantee us a place of worship and fellowship for generations to come.
Our Current Challenge
The cost of construction is approximately 3.8 million dollars. We have 2.8 million dollars in the building fund. We are seeking to bridge the gap.
