"Every year, our Hope Fund helps us to organize and see all of the outreach and missions giving for our church. From helping our local community to disaster relief worldwide to missionary partners, we’re always amazed and humbled by how God uses our community.
Our annual goal for 2025 is $100,000. This covers the money given and the value of the collections we receive and distribute in our community from the Hope Box. I pray you will respond to how the Holy Spirit inspires and directs you. So, Pray, Listen, and Obey.
I guarantee that you will see not only the blessings of God as a result, but you will also experience spiritual breakthrough!"
