Partners, it’s been 1½ years since the establishment of our LAUNCH CAMPAIGN which began in January 2010. Though we have not acquired 100 Individuals to commit to sowing $25/mthly as yet, we still have time and we are making great progress. Well, Phase 1 of the LAUNCH CAMPAIGN is now officially complete; and with the Church Board’s recent review, we have determined that no further purchases need to be made from this fund account for the purposes of renovation and upgrades. Therefore, we are acknowledging that every seed now sown towards this campaign, be set aside for the purpose of relocation to a much larger facility (Phase 2). We are all excited about this shift in directions, as we know the growth and vision of our ministry mandates more space is acquired. The present balance to date and upon completion of Phase 1 is: $527. 51 . Phase 2 starts here and now! We are now shifting into a more rigorous effort to raising funds, as our present location is limiting in what we are able to establish and function feasibly in. It’s about preparing for the NEXT LEVEL now. Behind The Scenes… Plans are being looked at for possible locations around the Brandon/Riverview Area at this present moment. In addition, we will be sharing more information as to the vision and the next step for our ministry. We recently acquired Robert Cohen C.P.A. to review our financial records for 2010; we’ll be sure to make mention of the outcome of his review. To find out more information on our LAUNCH CAMPAIGN and how you may be of support, please stop by our Administration Office, Information Desk or Entrance Lobby Table fore more details. Thank you for your continued support. Keep praying for the vision to be established in the hearts of the people. Projected reports indicate that our financial strength as a ministry is progressing upwards. Our projected budget for the last 2 years of $3,000/weekly has been steadily achieved, and due to recent determinations by the church board; we have need of raising the budget to $4,000/weekly. What’s the reason for the increase? • Well, our Pastors have been faithfully committed to the ministry’s vision for over 5 years and have not accepted or requested a salary within that time. We (Board of Directors) feel the covenant partners truly share in a commitment to the vision of the ministry and a desire to see our pastors flourish, compensated for their labor and sacrifice. Therefore, it’s out of a heart to see them blessed, that we extend to them a salary at this time. (1 Timothy 5:18) • It’s also time to prepare for the next level of ministry, taking a step into GLOBAL MINISTRY. Therefore, we accept the call, knowing that God has called us to perform Kingdom Assignment in this hour. We are preparing for Television Ministry; Radio Broadcasting & an even stronger Marketing Campaign. This will require investments into new technology, expansion of our services here at the ministry and at times professional counsel & investments. Understand this, “it often takes money to make money”. We do not wish to place any stress on our families here at the ministry; though we are committed to sharing with you the direction of the church and it’s financial needs.
