Church Family,
Our building fund currently sits at $351,124.00 (as of November 2025). I pray that you are as encouraged as our elders are. This number represents a combination of gifts given specifically to the “building fund” as well as our ability, in a season of low expenses, to apply excess tithes and offerings as well. Thank you so much for your continued faithfulness and generosity. We have hired engineers who have begun the process of getting us ready to break ground. We are hoping to begin building in 2026! Be sure to follow the ARCC podcast for more updates. Click the link below and join us in what we believe God is leading us towards as a church family.

BAPTISM
We offer baptisms a few times a year. Those interested in being baptized attend a short class where we talk more in-depth about what baptism is, and what it means in the life of a believer. This class also gives us an opportunity to hear your story and answer any questions that you may have.
GIVE
God has used and continues to use the faithful and generous giving of those here at ARCC to supply what we need for the work that He has given us to do. We invite you to sow into that work and come alongside us as we make disciples here in San Antonio and beyond.
SERVE
There's a lot that goes into ministry here at ARCC, and we're only able to make it happen together. Each week so many of you come together to use your gifts, talents, time, and effort to minister to the body. If you're not serving anywhere yet we encourage you all to get involved.

At the link below you will find a page that walks you through the new process. You’ll find lots of information on who we are and what we believe and what we expect from our members and what you can expect from us.
