Join us in making the Old Stone Church a permanent home for the Colorado House of Prayer.
From Vision to Reality: The Story of CHOP and the Old Stone Church
The Old Stone Church (OSC) stands as a testament to God’s faithfulness and the power of prayer. In 2020, the Colorado House of Prayer (CHOP) was divinely led to this historic and sacred space, recognizing its potential as a hub for worship, prayer, and community impact.
Phase 1: Laying the Foundation
Our initial goal is to raise $30,000 to establish The Old Stone Church Corporation. This involves collaborating with expert attorneys specializing in real estate and securities laws. As of August 1, we have raised $25,000. If you feel led to support this endeavor, please visit our giving page, enter your desired amount, and select "Old Stone Church Building Campaign" from the dropdown menu. Our target completion date for this phase is September 1, 2024.
Phase 2: Establishing Governance
In this phase, we will form the board of the OSC Benefit Corporation, which will oversee the project. Our aim is to be ready to receive funds for the initial offering by August 2024. Once the necessary funds are secured, we will proceed with purchasing the building and prepare for Phase 3. The goal for completing this phase is January 2025.
Phase 3: Community Ownership
This is where it gets exciting! The people of Colorado will have the opportunity to purchase fractional shares from Phase 2 investors, becoming part-owners of the oldest church building in Fort Collins. With an investment as modest as $100, you can contribute to this historic acquisition while blessing the Colorado House of Prayer. Given the complexity of this phase, detailed information will be released at a later date. We anticipate starting this phase in January 2026.
The Vision That Guides Us: Connect. Cultivate. Catalyze.
The Colorado House of Prayer is more than just a gathering place—it’s a collective expression of the Body of Christ. We exist to unite believers from every denomination and background, creating a sacred space where the walls that divide us can fall, and the presence of God takes center stage.
