Do Not Worry
CAPITAL CAMPAIGN OPENS WITH SIXTY YEARS OF BLESSINGS
The sixtieth anniversary of Christ Memorial celebrates the great blessings of God upon this ministry as we continue our faith journey into the next chapter of our church’s spiritual journey.
Under the theme of “Abundant Blessings … more Abundant Opportunities” we are initiating a capital campaign to raise 2.5 million dollars over the next three years. A successful campaign will reduce the debt on our current facility, enhance and expand existing ministries and programs, and seek innovative ways to build bridges into the community and beyond. The dollars will trim down further interest payments and serve as a financial platform toward a future new Sanctuary.
The communication phase of the campaign began with the recent mailing of a brochure to church families. During the next four weeks, all members will be fully informed about our building expansion and encouraged to seek God's leadership in determining financial commitments. "Equal sacrifice, not equal gifts" will be the major emphasis.
Our goal is to substantially reduce the indebtedness on our church facilities in three years instead of assuming a longer term mortgage. Thousands of dollars in interest payments can be saved and our regular budget will be free of the pressure that a long-term mortgage frequently imposes. Capital campaign commitments are to be in addition to any present giving for the budget and missions.

“Do
not worry.” These words of comfort from Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount are important
for us today. The depressing economic news
concerning the plunging figures from Wall Street have made many of us concerned
about our future. The loss is real. It is serious and it is not to be taken
lightly. In difficult times such as these it is important to remember Jesus’
words—God will provide. He will give us what we need. He will not forsake us.
Trust in Him.
