WHAT IS OUR "WHY"?
The "why" behind the Renewing Hope is to prepare for the next generations of Christ-Followers.
Take a few minutes to listen to this clip from a recent Family Chat given on February 2, 2025. In this overview, Pastor Bill Borinstein discusses the why of the campaign, the phases, and some principles for giving.
OUR PRIORITIES:
The Lord has been gracious to grow our church through many (and soon coming) births, and by the addition of new families to Hope. We have created the Renewing Hope Fund to prepare for the next generations of Christ-Followers. Our four priorities of Renewing Hope include
1. Children's & Youth – Update and create space for our Children & Youth ministries to thrive. This will include
-
Children's classrooms: paint, cabinets, furniture,
-
Fellowship Hall: furniture for youth & children's, permanent check-in station, cabinets, & parent resource wall.
-
Upper Room: reconfiguration and redesign to make more functional.
-
Signage
-
Storage: shed and shelving
-
Miscellaneous repairs and upgrades
​
2. Backyard - Transform our outdoor area into a space that is functional, fun, and can be enjoyed by our whole church family. This will include:
-
Sports court for children, youth, and adults (basketball, pickleball, dodgeball, etc.)
-
Turf to replace the pea gravel
​
3. Sound System – Upgrade our Worship Center sound system to eliminate dead spots and hot spots to improve the overall worship experience.
4. Cameras - Upgrade the cameras in the Worship Center to improve our livestream capabilities.

A FEW THOUGHTS ON GIVING:
1
EVERYONE PARTICIPATES
We are not asking for equal giving, but equal sacrifice.
2
ABOVE
AND BEYOND
Your gift to Renewing Hope would be above and beyond your faithful, systematic giving to our general fund.
3
COMMITMENT
SUNDAY
We ask that you fill out a commitment card this weekend and turn it in at the end of the service so we have an idea of what we can move forward with.
4
GIVING
SUNDAY
We would like gifts in by March 23rd or sooner (other than the gifts that are spread out over a year).
