Over the years, we have found it helpful in the month of October to share with our community how things are looking for us financially. This is a practice we’ve done for several years. Authenticity is one of our church family values.
So, we want you to know that as we have now completed our third quarter of giving for this year, we find ourselves slightly behind, year over year, in both our General Fund and our Global Work Fund.
We are not waving a big financial red flag, nor is this something we feel is insurmountable. But we do want you to know.
As a church, we walk in faith and full of trust, and we celebrate how we have been able to invest in needs globally and locally this year, and we anticipate how we can do this through the remainder of the year.
So, if you're giving regularly, thank you. Please continue to give as we come to the end of the year. If you’ve yet to give this year and wish to, we have information on our website on how to do this. Every gift — large or small — makes a big difference. Thanks for helping us be as generous as we possibly can. We have so much to be thankful for.
