On Friday, I received word from one of our building and grounds team members that we have an opportunity to finish replacing the 7 heat/air units at our church for a tremendous deal. It would normally cost around $50,000.00 to do it, but the company is willing to do it for our church for $15,000.00 if we do it within the next month.
This morning, I made an announcement that we will have a 4 week campaign to collect the money to help with this project. As you and your family have your family devotions this week, please pray about how God would have you give to help meet this need. God commands us to tithe and our tithe should go to the regular church ministry budget. However, I am convicted in my own life that God also desires for us to give an offering above our tithe. As you pray about giving above your tithe, please pray about giving to our heat/air fund over the next 4 weeks.
I am confident if all of us work together, we can meet and surpass this goal. God has blessed us with an amazing facility and we all enjoy the comfort of heat and air. Therefore, we should all participate in providing this comfort for many years to come just as it has been provided for us. Let's unify our hearts around this opportunity to give to GOD and lets bring him glory with our sacrifical gifts to make his house at Southside a comfortable place for ministry to go forward for many years to come.
