Future
West Market has undergone several projects to expand its facilities as well as its mission work. Currently plans are underway to begin renovating a property to serve as a space for a coffee shop, a space for the youth, and other undecided uses. If all goes as planned, this space could open up over a span of the next few years. Further mission work is underway, including trips to Africa to explore possibilities of sending more teams at a later time. One goal that the church has established for its outreach program is to have a presence in every populated continent. The contemporary service has greatly expanded recently, and growing it is a continued focus of the church.

Famous quotes containing the word future:
“I would sell my life to avoid
the pain that begins in the crib
with its bars or perhaps
with your first breath
when the planets drill
your future into you....”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“Do not discourage your children from hoarding, if they have a taste to it; whoever lays up his penny rather than part with it for a cake, at least is not the slave of gross appetite; and shows besides a preference always to be esteemed, of the future to the present moment.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
“What a prodigious growth this English race, especially the American branch of it, is having! How soon will it subdue and occupy all the wild parts of this continent and of the islands adjacent. No prophecy, however seemingly extravagant, as to future achievements in this way [is] likely to equal the reality.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
