A second worship service began meeting at Pelham High School. In 2010 the church purchased the former Trinity Life Church building in Bessemer out of foreclosure for $1.9 million as a new home for their branch campus. The church also bought 22 acres of adjoining land and spent $3 million in to make repairs and bring the 4-year-old building up to code before dedicating the new campus in June 2011.
