We continue to invite you to join us in prayer over our Generation to Generation Capital Campaign, a pivotal step in our journey to create a church for all generations, showcasing our unwavering commitment to this vision. Over the past few weeks, we’ve shared our plans and our dreams for Resurrection’s future, designed to resonate with students, children, and adults, leaving an enduring impact for generations to come. As we fully embrace our purpose of creating a Christian community where non-religious and nominally religious people of all generations are becoming deeply committed Christians, we invite you to reflect on how God is calling you to be a part of this campaign as well as through your commitment to Resurrection’s Annual Ministry Fund. Bring your commitment cards with you next week on Commitment Sunday, where we’ll worship together and offer our gifts, shaping a brighter, unified future for a church that stands the test of time.
