Grow your church in the theatre.
Pastor Eric Geiger went from one campus with three services and 2,500 in attendance to five campuses with 13 services and 5,500 in attendance – all with the help of the cinema. Pastor Mark Batterson hopes to rekindle the faith of surrounding communities by holding services in several locations across his city. Pastor Ryan Day opened his church's doors to new members living up to an hour away from his main campus. They were able to enjoy the ministry right in their neighborhood cinema.
Start your church in the cinema – a low-cost, high-impact, culturally relevant location. Our pricing approach means you can spend your resources wisely to best impact your community. The cost includes auditorium use, access to all restrooms, lobby access for greeting visitors and encouraging fellowship, consultation with Fathom’s team of theatre church consultants, facilities maintenance, janitorial services, and all utilities. Multi-auditorium discounts and long-term contracts are available as well – contact a Fathom theatre church consultant to learn more.
Fathom’s model gives your church the potential to easily, exponentially grow. No other venue offers flexible growth options, including expansion in one location without moving, renovating or building. Hold services in several cinema locations in one or a number of cities. Bring your message to big screens just about anywhere – and really inspire your congregations, whether live or via multicast. Expand to more than one auditorium to encompass children’s ministry and other special services. Check out our marketing tools that can help you generate buzz about your church and attract new people to your congregation.

“The pastor at the main church can literally see and hear our congregation, and we get his teaching on our big screen. It really brings us together and makes the two campuses feel like one.”
