Hello Family,
An important conversation for you and us.
It has been 6 months since we opened our very first building. We have welcomed 53 salvations and 17 baptisms since we opened. Jesus is amazing. Many of you have prayed, served and committed financially for us to take home-field advantage. Thank you. Cross Culture Church is growing and getting healthier. Your support has gone to change lives, get the building ready to welcome guests home, support local families and local organizations. Thank you. By praying, serving and giving to Cross Culture Church you are making a major difference.
Our health is directly connected to your health. As you pray more the Kingdom not only comes at CCC but in your life. As you serve, the Holy Spirit is moving your focus off of you and on mission with CCC. As you tithe and honor your commitments your hearts are transformed through obedience and generosity and CCC gets healthier too. We are the church. The people equal church.
We still have more health to pursue and maturity to seek in Jesus as individuals and as a church. It has been 6 years since we planted and God continues to mature us and empower us to be a self sustaining church. We are grateful for our outside partners and we hope to continue to model their generosity as we become more financially stable. New buildings are always a stretch and we stretched indeed in faith and God has brought us this far. The best is yet to come.
We still have some opportunities with our campaign that haven't been met to position as a healthy body and spiritual family. Would you prayerfully consider the following...
We are still short 50k for our reserves which will help us be better prepared for building expenses, maintenance, operating funds, taxes, and other ministry expenses. Would you consider today giving to better health through a one time donation today towards this RESERVES fund?
Along the way some of you have committed to either tithing and/or giving to our 2 year commitment for the campaign to sustain us as we grow. We have. Come this Sunday to hear some amazing stats from Resurrection Sunday. Maybe you forgot you committed, or lost the practice and obedience to do so. Either way, would you obediently get back on track and honor your commitment?
Never tithed or given 10%? Some of you have never been taught about the tithe and how important it is for your walk with Jesus. We would like for you to walk in obedience in your finances by following the 10/10/80 plan. 10% to God, 10% to savings, and 80% to live on. This is a life changing principle. It's all God's anyway and when we walk in obedience financially He changes our hearts and never ceases to provide. Plus, obedience leads to blessings. Good stewards experience more resources to steward for the Kingdom of God and Gospel. Watch Pastor Michael's sermon on Faith first in your finances. Click here.
Let's continue to take home-field advantage for the Kingdom and grow healthy as individuals and in turn grow the health of our spiritual family.
