Kick-Off Banquet

On Wednesday night, many of us gathered at the Town Center for the Kick-Off Banquet. There, after a nice time of food, fellowship and music (by Roberta Whiteside) the particulars of the campaign were laid out.

Our Goal for the Growing With Faith campaign is $279,000.

Gulp.

This number includes the cost of the house, closing, loan, refurnishing/remodeling, campaign, and tithe (so that we alone are not the only beneficiaries of this blessing).

The executive committee and several others have already been approached about their three-year pledges, so that we have already received commitments for $134,000.

Praise God.

But we still have a long way to go. We all must do our parts to make this a reality. And that includes prayer. Please pray the prayer found on this website and the brochure and let us all grow with faith as a result of this campaign.

Thank you all who attended the banquet and thank you to Alice Cottrell for planning the evening.
