Let’s go “All In”
In March of this year, we moved into our freshly renovated Worship Center. I think every one of us is thankful for the improvements that have been made to our facility and that it is set up to serve our church and the residents of our community for the foreseeable future. Of course, a project like this comes with a hefty price tag, and thank you to everyone who has given so generously over the last couple of years to help us make strides in paying for it.
When we started the project, we were fortunate to secure a low interest rate of 3.45% for five years. If you have shopped interest rates lately, you know what a great rate this is. However, we only have two more years left at this rate and need to pay as much as possible before the rate increases. We have set the lofty goal of taking in $1.5 million between now and the end of 2026. This would help us make a considerable dent in what we owe before the rate increases.
While this goal is attainable, it will take all of us giving generously and, at times, sacrificially above our general gifts to the church. Because of this, we have chosen the theme “All In” for this two-year campaign. For us to see this debt reduced and eventually paid off, we are all going to have to join in and give together. Every gift matters, and every one of us can contribute something. You will receive additional information in the coming weeks, but this campaign will kick off on December 15th with a special offering at our church Christmas Gathering. I want to ask you and your family to join us in our steps to go above and beyond our regular giving to see this much-needed upgrade to our facility paid off. If we all go “All In,” I know God will bless it and help us see this project through to the end.
For His glory and your joy,
Pastor Charlie
