"Footsteps of Faith: Still Walking" Campaign

This campaign is a one year (July 2018 - July 2019) faith journey in order

to eliminate the remaining mortgage balance. We have entered into

our final 3-month phase of the “Footsteps of Faith: Still Walking” Cam-

paign. God has truly blessed us and as we remain committed to this

journey of sacrifice let’s also be committed to a spiritual journey of fast-

ing, meditation and prayer every Wednesday, over the next 3 months

ending on June 26, 2019. Although some of you may not be able to

turn down your physical plates, we can all give up something on

Wednesdays (social media, television, sweets, sugary drinks, coffee,

etc.) that will allow us to have a more intimate relationship with God.

Let’s be prayerful as we achieve our goal “One Church Working Togeth-

er”. See pledge cards and envelopes in the entryway.
