A Sure Foundation capital campaign aims to eliminate the remaining portion of our mortgage and if possible, complete a few other high priority facilities projects. Our hope is for every household to participate which will free us to dream about what is to come and how we can better serve our community. Join us for Commitment Sunday April 3 at 10 am to mark the end of the campaign and to celebrate God’s abundant love towards us!
