We’re looking forward to gathering with all of you on New Year’s Day at 10:30!!
FRIENDS FOREVER FUND
CELEBRATE!
Last Sunday was a day to remember in the life of our church! We set a goal to raise $100,000 for the Friends Forever Fund with a goal to put $90,000 to pay down principal on our mortgage, and $10,000 to partner with RIP Medical Debt to pay off an estimated $1,000,000 in medical debt in our community.
As always God provided above and beyond our goal through the hearts of all who gave. We raised $121,349.77! Through this we will be able to donate $10,000 to RIP Medical Debt and still put over $100,000 toward our mortgage debt!
PRAISE GOD! And THANK YOU to all who gave obediently as the Lord led!

Chest Of Joash
The Chest of Joash provides an opportunity to give above and beyond the normal tithe. The money from it goes directly to work needed done on our building.
In 2 Chronicles 24 we find Joash repairing the temple and a chest was set outside of it for people to bring a tithe that was used to pay the workers restoring the temple. Verse 10 says, “And all the princes and all the people rejoiced and brought their tax and dropped it into the chest until they had finished.”
A huge THANK YOU to all of you who have joyfully donated just as the Israelite officials and people did!
You can give to the Chest of Joash by clicking the button below and selecting “Chest of Joash” in the drop down menu.
