We are Moving! It’s A New Day for Eugene Christian School!
The Lord has provided an wonderful opportunity for Eugene Christian School. We are purchasing a perfectly suited building near Coburg Road at 2895 Chad Drive. The current property on Amazon Drive is being sold, and the school will move in June and open for school in our new building n September 2012. There are four reasons for this bold new step:
- The new building will provide easier access to many families so it will help us to grow our enrollment
- The new building will allow us to enhance our programs and curriculum
- The new building will lend itself to developing partnerships and collaborations with other Christian organizations
- The new building is a good investment in our future
The Purchase Price for the building is $3.25 million
Renovation Costs are estimated at $1.75 million
Total cost is $5 million

“But blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, whose confidence is in Him. He will be like a tree planted by the water, that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.” Jeremiah 17:7
