Making Room // Pinelake Clinton
A 24-month initiative to make room for more people and more life change.
Where We Are in the Journey to Making Room
On Easter of 2017, we opened the doors to our brand new home at 201 Clinton Center Drive, Clinton, MS 39056, just off of I-20. Moving into this newly renovated facility has more than doubled the amount of space we have to welcome more people to experience life change in Christ.
God continues to expand our influence for His glory throughout our state, and we want to faithfully respond by making room. For the past year, we have been asking God to make room: in our vision for our part in His kingdom, in our hearts for more people, and financially for ministry expansion. Since then, we’ve seen Him bring story after story of life change.
One Story at a Time
Through Making Room, we’ve seen over a 1000 stories of life change take place. Each one of these stories is represented by a carabiner hanging from our Making Room sign. We’ve been able to minister to more than 19,000 of Mississippi’s prisoners through LOVEfirst, and we’ve served the Delta through children’s day camps and by constructing the Hope Center, which will serve on-going needs in the community.
TOGETHER WE CAN CONTINUE TO MAKE AN IMPACT
VISION
Is God calling you to a spiritual step?
HEART
Who is God leading you to add to your spiritual chain?
FINANCES
How can you live with generosity toward God’s kingdom plans?
God can use you in ways beyond what you think if you’re willing to let Him.
Here at Pinelake Clinton, though we’ve moved into our new home, we’re still working toward owning our facility. Your generosity will help get us there.
UPDATE: We’re putting all the finishing touches on our new space.

Frequently Asked Questions
Pinelake has entered a season of incredible growth at all of our campuses. We believe God has called us to make room in our hearts and in our facilities for our neighbors, friends and family members. To do so, we committed to a 24-month initiative called Making Room, which began in March of 2017. During this 2 year span, we’re asking God to work and provide through His people so that we can add space for students, children and families to hear the life-changing message about Jesus.
Pinelake Church invested $3 million to secure and renovate the building. Pinelake Clinton pays the lease over the next five years ($800,000 spread out over five years in the annual budget) and then we will purchase the building outright for $2 million. Your generosity through Making Room will help us meet this goal.
Our new auditorium holds 700 people per hour (compared to 330 in our previous space).
The new facility has nine rooms that holds 180 preschoolers per hour. That compares to 6 rooms for 60 people in our previous facility.
Every Sunday, elementary students join together in a 100-seat theater and then an even larger small group space.
Our new facility includes a 150-seat theater that’s set aside for middle school students on Wednesday nights at 6 p.m. and high school students each Sunday at 5 p.m.
