The Shed is an event and cultural center built for the social, artistic, economic, and spiritual benefit of Downtown and urban Dallas in the heart of The Dallas Design District. Through Art, Music, Education and Community, we promote life and growth in our city through creative initiatives and strategic partnerships. The Shed is about a way of life, cultivating purpose, and guiding people into a relationship with God.
FACTS ABOUT NEW CHURCHES • Younger adults are disproportionately found in newer congregations, primarily because of younger pastors. • New residents are better reached by new congregations because it takes less time to work through “the system” to get involved and grow roots in a place. • Unchurched families are better reached by church plants. • Churches 15 years and older primarily reach churched people (80-90% are churched). • Young churches efectively reach unchurched people (60-70% are unchurched).

1. PRAYER. We really need your prayers as we begin this journey. 2. UP FRONT FUNDING. To get The Shed off the ground, one of our primary needs is up front funding. Up front funding helps cover all of the “below the line� expenses. These one time expenses include everything from a sound system, furniture, equipment, etc. 3. MONTHLY FUNDING. We will also need help on a monthly basis for the first year. Monthly support will go to things such as facilities rental, and operational costs. We are attempting to raise $4,000 per month for the first year. www.vive.cc/new/donaciones 4. CONTACTS. We need additional contacts for ministry support. You may know of someone in your church, office, or family network that would be interested in partnering with The Shed. Please place this information in their hands and help us set up a meeting time.
