ASK & IMAGINE

Beyond These Walls  is a churchwide effort to fully eliminate our building debt and free up a significant portion of our budget currently dedicated to loan payments and interest. We are asking our church family to generously give above and beyond normal contributions to alleviate the need for a mortgage refinancing requirement coming in 2026. By doing so, we can redirect that portion of the budget towards strengthening and expanding our ministry, outreach, and service.

This initiative is about more than finances: it’s about stewardship and our vision for the future of our church. By freeing our church from debt, we open the door to greater opportunities to GO, GROW, and LOVE.

We aim to serve more boldly, invest in people rather than loan interest, and prepare for all that God will do. Together, we can move beyond these walls and into a season of greater ministry impact.

GIVING DAY

On December 14, 2025, during morning worship service, we will take up a special collection. We ask that you prayerfully consider providing a financial gift that will go directly towards paying off the $902,000 we still owe on our building mortgage. We believe that God will faithfully provide.

FINANCIAL PLEDGES

We understand that December 14 will be here quickly and it can take time to pull together resources to give as generously as we desire. We also understand that this ask comes during a time of economic hardship for many and the joyful giving of the Christmas season. At anytime, you can fill out a pledge card and give it to an elder or member of the fundraising committee (or just let us know). Our goal is to apply funds towards the loan principal as quickly as possible to save on interest, so your pledge and timing estimate will help us plan.
