Year-End Giving - As you consider your year-end giving to the Lord, will you
prayerfully think about a one-time gift to either missions or our Transform
building fund? We have a special need to help fund the children’s classrooms
that are currently not within our budget. A healthy end-of-year giving season
will enable us to tell our contractor to “finish them!” ☺ Think of all the lives
that will be transformed for eternity in these new spaces!
