In spring 2006, a small group from Lee's Summit Community Church began meeting with the purpose of church planting. They felt a stirring that God was calling them on a new mission and began praying about what that would look like. Over the year or so of praying and planning, God narrowed their focus and gave them clarity about what He was calling them to do. God brought about the leadership, vision, and structure in His own timing. The plans for the new church became finalized in Fall of 2007, and The Avenue was born.
Led by Pastor Nick Kendall, the Avenue began having services in January 2008 and launched into the community later that summer. With a vision to reach the Kansas City region for Jesus, the team prayed a central location in Eastern Jackson County would open up. Prayers were answered as The Hilton Garden Inn in Independnece became available on Sunday mornings. After a few more weeks of settling into a new place, The Avenue held its official Grand Opening service on October 4, 2009.
As a regional church, The Avenue maintains a church planting focus and strives to connect people to God through authentic community in the Kansas City area. Our goal is to reach the postmodern generation and present Jesus as the truth, and THE AVENUE to God.
