The New EpiCenter
Within days, the garage doors serving as classroom doors will be installed, and sheetrock is going in as you read this! The dedication of the new student center is set for March 25, Lord willing. Our remaining need is only $110,000, or 3% of the entire cost of the Thrive Project. However, additional funds will be needed to complete the recreation fields on Church Street and for parking lot repairs. For a quick look, click here.
Giving in the Boxes
Currently, we are experimenting with giving our tithes and offerings by use of the wooden boxes placed at the Worship Center exits. Thank you for giving more than $83,000 last Sunday! Of course, members give in a variety of ways, such as in the boxes, through the mail, in person at the Church Office, and by means of online giving. To give online safely and securely, click here.
