Overview of Capital Campaign


The highlight of our 120th Anniversary Celebration is our Capital Campaign. This 3-Phase initiative is slated to be completed by October 29, 2023. Our goal is to improve the utility and viability, as well as the aesthetics of our church property. By removing the existing parsonage, constructing dedicated parking, and upgrading our greenspace, we enhance the curb appeal and maintain a stately presence in the community.

 

Phase 1

Phase 1 of our Capital Campaign will conclude with our 120th Anniversary Celebration, on Sunday, April 16, 2023. During this worship service, we will include the unveiling of our commemorative plaque. The personalized nameplates are dedicated to the memory of some of our trailblazing members who have left indelible footprints on our journey.

 

Phase 2

Phase 2 of our Capital Campaign begins April 1, 2023. We are inviting former pastors and former members; extended family and friends; churches and businesses to participate in this phase by purchasing nameplates. We will showcase the new donors on Sunday, July 30, 2023, during Family & Friends Day.

 

Phase 3

Phase 3 of our Capital Campaign begins August 1, 2023. We invite everyone who wants to be included in our improvement initiative to purchase the remaining personalized nameplates. Our culminating celebration will be held on October 29, 2023, with our Harvest Day Celebration. This celebration is open to the community, as we give thanks to God for everyone who has sowed into the success of our ongoing efforts to revitalize our property.
