Mission: Possible! 2005–2007 Capital Campaign

$ 944,332 was the campaign goal adopted at Church Conference on April 28, 2005  (Includes Phase 3 renovation and debt payments on Phase 1 loan.)

Your support to the Mission: Possible Capital Campaign 2005-2007 has made possible:

• A refurbished and beautiful Chapel for worship and meetings.

• Pleasant office areas that provide a workgroup atmosphere and are wired for today’s technology.

• A convenient and inviting place for people to connect with each other near the Sanctuary.

The dollars pledged and given to this capital campaign will pay for the most recent and final phase of our church’s renovation (Phase III completed June 2006) and will also pay toward the debt remaining from the renovation Phase I portion.

Renovation of our church’s physical structure began in earnest nine years ago and in many ways the church has also experienced a renovated spirit.

Phase III of our renovation was completed on schedule and in June 2006 the pastors and staff moved into the new offices that are the communication hub of the church. The renovation projects will under gird the active and vibrant ministry of the church in our community and around the world.

Beyond the bricks and the dollars, we are most excited that we are touching and impacting lives. Your gifts make it possible for us to make a difference in the lives of many people in our own community and around the world!  Thank You!
