Taking Ground

A historic opportunity to establish our first home.

One Goal. Many Gifts.

We believe God is inviting every person who calls Harbour Church home to participate in the miracle of our first building. From the very beginning, Harbour Church has been built through the generosity and sacrifice of people who believe in our mission to make disciples of Jesus. Our desire is to see every person give “willingly and wholeheartedly” (1 Chronicles 29). Our prayer is for 100% participation as we come together not just to purchase a building, but to reach a city. We simply ask that you prayerfully consider what part God is inviting you to play in this miracle.

A Historic Opportunity

Located on Main Street in the heart of Sarasota, this isn’t just another church building. It’s a rare opportunity to take ground for the Kingdom right in the center of our city. Built in 1930, this building has stood through nearly a century of Sarasota’s history. We believe its best chapter is still ahead. Through a unique set of circumstances, the owners have presented an opportunity to purchase the historic building separately from the surrounding property, making ownership possible in one of the most desirable areas of our city.
