2023 MINISTRY/GIVING recap

 

Thank you for your generosity in 2023!

Over the course of this past year, the Lord has continued to show Himself faithful to our church family. He has been working through you all and your generosity to allow us to continue doing the things He has called us to do, and we are so pleased to announce that we were able to close out 2023 about $6,000 beyond our projected giving target for the year! It's because you chose to cheerfully and faithfully give that we were able to meet this goal, and we are truly thankful for all of you.

As we look back on 2023, here are a few highlights of ways your generosity has helped fuel the mission:

  • We've been able to strengthen our partnership and ministry to Bartram Springs Elementary School and Bartram Lakes Assisted Living.

  • We sent a team from our church to Kenya to encourage and serve missionaries from all over east Arica.

  • We have been able to relaunch our student ministry with new leaders and have seen significant growth and consistency in that area.

  • We saw over 200 children attend Bible Camp with around 75 volunteers participating as well!

  • Pastor Kenny and his family were able to take a Sabbatical where they were refreshed and strengthened for the years ahead.

  • Hundreds of families came to our property and inside our doors at Winter Express where several of them had the Gospel shared with them or were invited to church.

  • We have continued to support 50 students at Destiny Academy in Ethiopia along with Elsa (the school nurse).

  • We have been able to update some of our old and deteriorating technology and sound equipment in the auditorium.

  • Our church has continued to see growth spiritually, numerically, and in fellowship with one another! Along with several new families joining our church.

I could go on, but those are some of the things that your giving had a direct role in supporting. As we look ahead to 2024, we know the Lord will continue to lead you in faithfulness to support the mission of making disciples in our community, city and world. We believe the best is yet to come!

Thank you once again for being a part of this with us! I am praying for a blessed 2024 for you and your family!

Grace and Peace,

Kenny Roberts, Lead Pastor
