The idea of "build it and they will come" puts undue financial stress on the saints, which is unbiblical.
Building an auditorium is not our problem. We should just bring folks into the Kingdom and let folks give as they wish. The more folks that are saved, the more they will receive for their projects.
It just stands to reason.

Yup. We are expanding at our current location which is a 114 year old warehouse. There is room to build out a 1500 seat sanctuary while still retaining our current space. That is a project that will probably be done at the end of this year or beginning of next and in the meantime we are adding a fourth weekend service beginning March 21.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
