Missional Move: Hope for the City is our invitation to bring the hope of Jesus to the north Texas region through harbors (campuses) and hope carriers (people).
Click the button below if you’re looking for all messages from our Missional Move: Hope For The City series.
We believe that God is inviting Valley Creek to move from being a church for a city, to a church for a region. We want to create a harbor, or a campus, within approximately a 20-minute drive for everyone in the north Texas region. Each campus is a harbor of hope where people who have been beaten by the storms of life can come to experience the presence of Jesus and have their identity, relationship, and purpose restored. As they start to receive the hope of Jesus, we can then send them back out into the world to carry hope to others.
We currently have four campuses, and we believe God is inviting us to double-down by moving from four to eight over the next three to four years. In each of these new areas, we see a great opportunity for hope and already have a significant number of Valley Creek families who can help us launch each campus. Like Jesus, we want to move into the neighborhood and create multiple opportunities for every individual to see and experience the hope of Jesus.
Our Denton Campus launched in 2014 and has been growing ever since. They’re located at the intersection of I-35E and 288/Teasley, across from the Golden Triangle Mall.
Our Flower Mound Campus is our original campus, our broadcast campus, and currently contains our central offices. It’s located just south of FM 407, between Dixon and Waketon Road, with entrances off of Dixon Road and Long Prairie Road/FM 2499.
Our Venue Campus is a smaller, full campus located inside our Flower Mound Campus. You can experience live worship and the message here every Sunday.
Our Lewisville Campus launched in 2016, and is bringing hope to the city and the people of Lewisville. It’s located at the intersection of 121-Business and I-35E.
There are more than 50,000 students enrolled in UNT, TWU, and NCTC. We see a huge opportunity to reach and raise up the next generation of kingdom leaders by creating a harbor specifically for them.
Gainesville is known as the “gateway to Texas”, and this campus is located right off of I-35. We’re so excited for how Jesus is already moving in and through this harbor, and we know the best is yet to come!
As one of the top 10 fastest-growing communities in DFW, the cities along the I-35W/377 corridor offer us a great opportunity to reach thousands of new people. This area is also the home of one of the largest groupings of Valley Creek families anywhere in north Texas.
As we launch the first three campuses, we believe God will give us direction and timing for the fourth campus. Like always, we simply want to follow the Cloud and discover what God shows us along the way.
When you have been touched by the hope of Jesus, you can’t help but share His hope with others. We want to use our campuses (harbors) to develop people to be kingdom leaders (hope carriers). A hope carrier is someone who simply carries the hope of Jesus into the areas of life they already go to everyday. Jesus has commissioned us to establish His kingdom, not just in the church, but in every area of life. Since Valley Creek is made up of people, not buildings, we already exist in thousands of locations. Our long-term future is to focus on intentionally equipping each person to simply release the hope of Jesus in the areas of life where they already have influence. Our desire is to see His kingdom come and His will be done in every area of life.
I used to measure myself by likes and followers. But I knew there was more. So I’ve decided to do something different. I’m giving hope away, and I’m finding it for myself. I am a #HopeCarrier!

I’m in high school. People don’t really expect much out of me. They think I’m too young to make a real difference. But I believe I have the power to bring hope to everyone I know. I am a #HopeCarrier!

When people ask me what I do for a living, I tell them I’m in sales. But sales is just something I do. When I walk into the office I bring hope with me. I am a #HopeCarrier!

Here are the latest updates of our missional move:
We’re excited to soft-launch our Gainesville Campus on Sunday, November 1 with one service time at 9:30am! We won’t have Kids ministry available at this time, but you’re welcome to bring your kids into service with you. Our Gainesville Campus has a Campus Pastor and a full staff team dedicated to bringing hope to that city and beyond.
We LOVE Gainesville, and we’re so excited to launch our newest campus there! Construction on the building is in the final stages, and we have been serving the city every month. As we start to put together a team for the launch of Valley Creek Gainesville, we’re excited to invite you to one of our Gainesville Interest Gatherings.
We’re excited to announce that Brian Schoenhofer is our Gainesville Campus Pastor.
Our Gainesville Campus is currently under construction (see photos), and we’re planning to launch in 2020. We’re excited to bring the hope of Jesus to the city of Gainesville and beyond!
We’re excited to announce that we have acquired our sixth campus location. We officially closed on some land in Argyle for our new Argyle Campus! We are a movement of hope for the city and beyond, and we’re excited to bring the hope of Jesus to the city of Argyle through Valley Creek Argyle. More details and info to come!
It’s time to pioneer – to take new ground together. We want to invite every Valley Creek family to prayerfully consider making a two-year commitment above and beyond the tithes and offerings they already give to help us bring the hope of Jesus to our region. This is a huge step of faith and will require all of us to ask, listen, and respond to the voice of God.
We ask and talk about this question all the time! Here’s a quick overview:
It’s an investment into people, Jesus’ church, the kingdom of God, and your eternal legacy. This investment will include:
As we begin our Missional Move journey together, we follow the Cloud by faith. That means we will listen for the voice of God and continue moving forward one next step at a time. While some of our steps are clear, others are yet to be defined.
A commitment card is different from giving. Filling out a commitment card is your way of letting Valley Creek know what you are committed to financially give over two years to the Missional Move.
Giving to the Missional Move can be done online any time at valleycreek.org/give.
Valley Creek Gainesville will launch in 2020 when we have the building, resources, leaders, and serve teams ready to be a movement of hope for that city. Pray with us that these provisions will come quickly! Stay tuned.
Valley Creek Gainesville is under contruction and set for a launch date of 2020, and we recently acquired land in Argyle for Valley Creek Argyle. If you know of, or are connected to a property that you would like to invest into this Missional Move, please contact us at missionalmove@valleycreek.org.
As our campuses prepare for launch, we will announce opportunities to join the launch team. Until then, join a serve team at your local campus and bring hope to the community where you are planted.
With every Missional Move, we believe in sending our best. So as we wait for the locations to become available, we will continue to raise up our leaders to be well-equipped as they lead a movement of hope.
With our Gainesville Campus launching in 2020, we’re excited to announce that Brian Schoenhofer is our Gainesville Campus Pastor.
If you’d like to speak to a staff member about a specific role or team, we’d love to hear from you – email us at info@valleycreek.org.
Multiplying our campuses from four to eight will require a significant increase in centralized support. Our central offices will house the staff to generate the resources for all our campuses with consistency and excellence. It also keeps our team in unity, which is one of our highest values.
Missional Move #2 will launch soon, so stay tuned. There is no additional financial commitment. Missional Move #2 will be about mobilizing our church as hope carriers in the areas of life. Begin to pray now for wisdom, opportunity, and favor to carry hope into every area of your life!
There is not a cost, there is an investment. An investment in people and the cities we will reach. For this missional move, an investment of $20 million is required to cover the costs of four campuses and central offices. We believe this will allow us to raise up 750 serve team members, 400 leaders, and bring hope into the lives of thousands of new people.
Yes – you can still make a financial commitment to Missional Move: Hope For The City. You can also invest stocks, donate land, or contribute other assets. Simply email us at missionalmove@valleycreek.org, and we will gladly discuss those options with you.
For any other questions or further clarity, please email us at missionalmove@valleycreek.org.
We believe this is the greatest season our church has ever seen, and we’re so glad you’re here to join this journey with us! Let’s pioneer together and take hope to the city and beyond!
