CAMPAIGN PRIORITIES
CAMPAIGN PRIORITIES
Priority #1:
Sanctuary and
Gathering Spaces
It has been several decades since our sanctuary and gathering spaces were updated. In order to support our vision to be a vibrant church, we need to refresh the places where we worship, grow and serve. Enhancing our ministry spaces will make our church more inviting for all generations.
Priority #2:
Children, Youth
and Older Adults
We want the next generation to have engaging and relevant meeting environments. We envision refreshing and adding rooms, so that our Preschool, Kids and Student Ministries can continue to flourish. Older adults will benefit from improved accessibility and comfort.
Priority #3:
Mission
and Outreach
We are a church committed to mission, welcoming those within the community and reaching out beyond our four walls. The campaign will include funding expanded outreach programs in collaboration with our local mission partners.
The For All Generations campaign's primary goal is to further our church’s mission of inviting all generations into a growing life with Jesus Christ. The objectives of the campaign are to pursue the dual purposes of enhancing our spaces for ministry and making needed improvements to our facility infrastructure.
Yes, 10% of the funds raised will go directly to outreach programs in collaboration with our local mission partners.
We believe God is calling everyone who calls our church home to make a generous campaign gift. Please prayerfully consider your commitment and trust that Christ will lead you to give sacrificially.
This gift should be over and above your regular annual pledging. Our church needs to continue with all of its current ministries while we look to fund facility and ministry improvements.
Yes, we are more than willing to accept gifts of stocks, investments, etc. As opportunities to give time and talents arise, they will be communicated.
Your giving can be on a schedule that works for you. Please fill out the campaign commitment card here, and choose the giving plan that works best for you.
100% ENGAGEMENT FOR ALL GENERATIONS
All who call First Pres Wheaton home are being called upon to invest in our future for all generations. You are invited to engage in the campaign by Praying, Attending, and Committing.
