We are only a few days away from our Next Steps Relaunch Sunday on April 22nd. Since launching our Next Steps vision expansion campaign 1 year ago we’ve been able to launch & complete our phase 1 Student Center and raise $200,000 but our work is not done. At our current rate of giving we will pay off the Student Center remodel in 58 weeks; just over 1 year. But I believe with everyone’s help we can get our phase 1 remodel paid off early and get started on phase 2, the worship center sanctuary.
I want to challenge you to stay focused and join me as we boldly move forward to our Next Step. Now isn’t the time to glory in our successes. Right now is the time to use that success to catapult us forward. Enclosed you will find a commitment card that we will collect on April 22nd. I want to challenge everyone to consider 3 steps as you prepare for Relaunch Sunday.
REVIEW: If you made a 3-year commitment a year ago, I’d like to ask you to pray and review that commitment once again. As you pray, ask God if he wants you to increase your commitment over the next 2 years. After prayer, if you feel confident that your commitment should remain the same, simply complete your commitment card.
REVISE: If after prayer you believe God is challenging you to take a greater step of faith, then revise your commitment for the remainder of our 2-year Next Steps campaign and complete your commitment card.
RESPOND: If you didn’t make a commitment last year, this is your chance to respond to God’s vision & plans for Central by diligently seeking God for the financial commitment he wants you to make in helping us take our Next Steps. As God gives you clarity on your commitment, please complete your commitment card for Sunday.
On Sunday morning you will bring your 2-year commitment forward and we will receive a Relaunch Offering. We’re asking everyone to bring an offering of 10% of your next 12 months commitment ($500 = $50, $1000 = $100, $2500 = $250, $5000 = $500). Join Tricia and I as we take these Next Steps together and let’s watch as God comes through again.
