Most of our outreach ministries are funded through "Harvest Sunday." On
this day, which is usually the first Sunday in February, all of the
money given and pledged goes toward outreach. Half of this giving goes
towards foreign outreach, and half of the giving goes towards local
outrreach.
Harvest Sunday this year is on February 7, 2010. All giving and pledges on this day goes towards local and global outreach (50% to each). Last year we received $184,378.85 (83%) of our pledges. Considering the challenges in the economy, this was very good. Thank you for your generosity! This year we have set our Harvest Sunday goal at $200,000.
Over these next few weeks we want to share how your giving can help reach people for Christ. We also have a prayer & information meeting each week that we invite every member to be a part of. Please be praying for these works!
