As Psalm 145 reminds us, it is our responsibility to pass down the blessings of our faith from one generation to the next. Just as we have benefited from the foundation laid before us, it is now our turn to invest For The Future.

Our church is experiencing an exciting season of growth, with new families joining us weekly and our children and youth ministries are thriving. However, our current facilities, graciously provided in 1983, are no longer sufficient to meet our needs. The demand for space is urgent, and we must act now to ensure the safety and care of all our church family.

We will start as soon as cash and commitments come in that indicated our ability to take on this project.

At this point, no one knows the answer to that. We would like to move ahead as quickly as possible. We are already a bit crowded in some rooms so the need is immediate.

We will give everyone the opportunity to think and pray about their involvement. Then we will ask that Commitment Cards be turned in by June 30, indicating how much has been committed to the For the Future fund.

This is a step of faith for all of us. We are trusting God to do what only He can. No one knows with certainty their financial future. Someone may not be able to do all that they had hoped while some one else may be able to do more. We are all trusting God together.

There will be no long term indebtedness. There could be some short-term debt, often called a construction loan that would be covered by amounts committed but not yet given. The Elder Board is committed to doing this expansion without putting the church in debt.
