Pastor Matt
Dear Kingsway Family,
As we come to the conclusion of our five-year vision and the final chapter of our Relentless Pursuit initiative, our hearts are filled with gratitude. We pause to reflect, not to boast, and to testify to the faithfulness of God and the obedience of His people.
Because of your generosity and faith in Relentless Pursuit, $2.25 million has been given toward the mission God placed before us. Lives have been forever changed as our attendance has grown from a total weekly average (in-person and online) in 2021 of 1,537 people to a weekly average of 2,209 people in 2025. During that time, we have witnessed 397 people go all in and be united to Christ in baptism. We’ve had the privilege of serving our wider community by hosting the Global Leadership Summit, serving 311 people this last year. That’s 92% growth over these five years of hosting this conference!
God also enabled us to improve and steward our facilities well. Our parking lot was resurfaced, our lobby restrooms remodeled, and our spaces made more welcoming and functional for ministry.
New ministries were launched that reflect the heart of Christ and what He is doing here at Kingsway Christian Church. The DCS Space was created to serve children being removed from their homes - providing a safe, loving place to land until permanent placement is found. We also launched Pathways Learning Academy, opening doors not only for education, but for sharing the hope and love of Jesus with children and families. And church - there is still more to come!
Scripture reminds us to walk humbly into the future: “Instead, you ought to say, ‘If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that’” (James 4:15). With that posture, if the Lord wills, we desire to make room for a new staff area within our building, launch a counseling center, replace aging sound equipment in the worship center, and establish a prayer room - a dedicated place where people can seek the Lord, be still in His presence, and be prayed over.
As we give thanks and look ahead, our mission remains unchanged. Jesus’ command guides us: “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations...” (Matthew 28:18–20). We will continue to pursue this calling by focusing on our ONE - the person God has placed in our lives to reach for Him.
Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain (Psalm 127:1). We are confident that He has been building, guiding, and sustaining Kingsway every step of the way - and we trust Him to continue. Thank you for your faith, your sacrifice, your prayers, and your Relentless Pursuit of Jesus. We step into the future with open hands, full hearts, and unwavering hope in what God will do next.
With gratitude and expectation,
Matt Nickoson
Lead Pastor - Kingsway Christian Church

At the beginning of 2023, we prayerfully launched Relentless Pursuit - a spiritual and generosity effort to bring our mission to life! We want to become more like Jesus in all we say and do, and your generosity has helped make that happen.
You’ve given over $2.25 million in these past three years. We are so grateful to be closing in on our goal of $2.5 million! And yes, there is still time to meet your commitments.
As we wrap up this initiative, please join us in praying with both expectation and trusting God that we will accomplish all He has for us to do.
Here are some of the things we have been able to accomplish over these past three years …
