Embark on a New Chapter with Us
It's time to plant deep roots
We are thrilled to embark on an exciting new chapter with you! After 20 years of excellence in Christ-centered education together, we are excited to announce that we will be purchasing our very own building for the first time.
“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord. He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit.”
Jeremiah 17:7-8
The Details
CCA is searching for a new, permanent home where we can plant deep roots and continue the growth the Lord has so graciously nurtured within our current walls. As we continue on this journey, we are finding strength and inspiration from Jeremiah 17:7-8 and have chosen it as the verse for our capital campaign.
Why do we need a building of our own?
When we first came to The Breeze Church (formerly Faith Assembly), it was a church in need of a school for its building, and CCA was a school in need of a church to rent from. The Lord has blessed both The Breeze Church and CCA with incredible growth in recent years, and as a result, it is mutually beneficial for CCA to relocate to a permanent home at this time.
Our teachers are looking forward to having classrooms of their own; our athletic department is looking forward to having appropriate facilities for new offerings and more participation; and our prospective families, who have been on CCA’s waitlists for years (yes, multiple years!) are looking forward to our school having increased space for additional classes that will allow us to serve more families in Southwest Florida.

What's Happening Now
Our building committee is currently working alongside Trinity Commercial Group, a commercial real estate brokerage, to search within a 10 mile radius of our current campus for land where we can build, or land that has buildings/structures on it that could either fully house our school, or partially house our school while additions are being made.
While we hope to remain within a 10 mile radius of our current location, we are also keeping an eye out for opportunities outside of this range, should the Lord lead us in that direction.
Our Current Needs
- Capital for a downpayment so that we can afford to make an offer on the right property when the Lord opens the door. Many of you graciously donated to our first efforts during the spring, and for that we are truly grateful.
Some of our donors asked that their money be returned to them, since we were no longer purchasing the Tarpon Street property, so we have less available for a downpayment going into our current search than we did before. We are trusting the Lord to bring forth donors to provide every penny needed in His perfect timing, and ask you to join us in praying that He would open up the doors to where our new, permanent location will be.
How Can You Help?
- Please prayerfully consider contributing to our Capital Campaign in order to help fund the downpayment and our new location as a whole. If you know of someone who may be interested in selling land, or a building that could fit our needs, please let us know. We are happy to do the asking!
- CCA is a 501c3 non-profit organization, so monetary donations and in-kind contributions are tax deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law.
- Join us in prayer!
We invite you to join us in making this vision a reality, and to connect with our Capital Campaign Manager, Jillian Gosselin (jgosselin@discovercca.org), to discuss how you can be involved and make a meaningful impact. Together, let’s plant roots and shape the future of CCA.
CCA’s Planting Roots capital campaign runs with a goal of raising $5MM by the end of 2025. We cannot accomplish this without your help.​
CCA is already a mighty tree—its roots strengthened through years of growth. Every donor, and every family, represents a vital leaf, branching out and contributing to our collective strength and growth. Just as a tree draws nourishment from its roots, we aspire to establish a lasting foundation for our school's future, echoing the wisdom of Jeremiah 17:7-8. This is our opportunity to emulate the tree planted by the stream, ensuring stability and growth for generations of CCA.​
Together, let's sow the seeds of sustainability and expansion. Your support, whether through time, talent, or resources, will enable us to flourish and enrich our community's future. Join us in cultivating a legacy as enduring as the strongest oak. Together, we can build, nurture, and preserve the flourishing future of CCA.
