Weekly Digital Bulletin – October 14-15

This weekend, we are celebrating 1 year of the Rebuilding Home campaign! Join us for special updates on the campaign and how we can all work together to cross the finish line! We have a brand new Giving Page with new ways to give, including stock gifts – check it out here!

You may have noticed…PHASE 1 IS OFFICIALLY COMPLETE as we officially opened the Park! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for helping us finish that major part of the Rebuilding Home campaign! We also opened the sport court in the Backyard and next up will be working on the splash pad in the Backyard.

THANK YOU for being an extremely generous church family!

The most updated numbers are as follows:

• $3.5 million has been given
• Another $820K has been pledged
• Total given and pledged is $4.32 million of the $4.6 million campaign
• Between gifts and pledges, we’re 94% of the way to the finish line!
• …so there’s still time to get involved and it takes all of us working together as a church family to finish this project! It’s important to fulfill your pledges so we can make it to the finish line together!

To get updates you can’t find anywhere else, join our email list and you’ll get monthly updates as well as the weekly digital bulletin sent to your inbox.

As we rebuild home, we also would like to encourage you to not overlook the general fund, as the capital campaign is intended to be offerings above and beyond your normal tithe. While we look forward to the future, we also want to steward well and continue the ministry God has for us as a church family.
