We hope you’ve had an awesome summer! We are so excited to tell you that we’ve made it to Phoenix! The girls are all registered for school and Steph and I have been making new friends like crazy! We are finally getting settled in to our new place with a few random boxes here and there… oh and… I finally found all my clothes! 🙂
Below are 3 quick things we want to update you on:
1. Â We’ve scheduled our first launch team meeting for August 14th. We are on track to seeing 15-20 people at this meeting! We’ve partnered with some awesome families and are honored to do life with such a great group of people.
2. Â We have secured our location at Camelback High School in their 1300 seat theater! We’ve also discovered our worship pastor and she is awesome!
3. Â Last but definitely not least; the Association of Related Churches has increased their matching funds to $50,000! This is amazing! Never before has a church planting organization offered such support in helping churches launch this strong.
If you’ve thought about supporting us financially, I encourage you to take a step of faith with us. Please partner with us for 6 or 12 months and help us launch strong. Your gift will be doubled up to $50,000. That means if you give $500 dollars it’s like your giving $1,000 because of the matching funds we will be receiving!
Our goal is to raise $250,000 for our launch and post-launch budget. That may seem like a lot to one person but if you can partner with us for next 6 months and give your best gift then I believe we will have more than enough.
We don’t want to just raise a bunch of money, we want to invest this money into launching a life-giving church! I can’t tell you the amount of people in Phoenix who are hungry for real, authentic community and an experience with the Holy Spirit.
As I get to know people here in Phoenix, I keep hearing the same thing, “I love God but just had a bad experience in church.”
Our goal is to create an environment at Victorious Church so that we can reach this “de”-churched population of people and help them re-activate their God-given purpose and destiny.
Won’t you partner with us to do the same?
