Dear Church Family,

Our Lord is telling us that now is the time to actively implement his strategy for us to make as many disciples as possible in the coming years on the 80/20 corridor. By placing thriving churches at strategic locations along the corridor, offering compassion ministries to the hurting, and providing a Christian School for the children, combined with our current sports ministries, we will be highly effective at reaching people for Christ for years to come in an increasingly secular culture.

The next steps we need to take are as follows. First, we need to strengthen our home base by paying off our current debt and making some campus enhancements. Paying off our current debt would not only make us debt free, but also provide an additional $1,000,000 per year, every year, in our budget for missions and church planting! We need to refresh and update the discipleship spaces for our preschoolers, children, and teenagers which have not been touched since 2004. We also need to pour additional parking. Second, we need to acquire a property situated on either Hwy 80 or I-20 that we can transform into a community center to house our coming large-scale compassion ministries. We need the community center to be on a highway so that it is accessible to all the residents on the 80/20 corridor.

Through his Spirit and his Word in Joshua 1:1-11, the Lord is telling us that now is the time for us to take these next important steps in implementing his long-term strategy for our church family. In the guidebook below, you will find many more details about what I have just shared with you.

That his way may be known on earth, his saving power among all the nations,

— Pastor Nathan
