We want to thank everyone who joined us for the 50th Anniversary celebration! God blessed us in so many ways! There was great fellowship, new relationships ignited, old friends reunited, faith shared, and love spread. Hearts were touched and 7 children found new sponsors. For those who may not know, a very generous, anonymous lover of the City gave a "matching" gift of $250,000! From now until December 31, 2023, for every dollar given to the City, our donor will match that gift up to $250,000! It is difficult to express the gratitude we have for such an enormous gift! As the year winds down, we will be offering many reminders for you to help us take full advantage of the matching funds given by our incredibly generous donor! All money donated will be added to the Children's Strategic Support Fund and tracked for matching purposes. Since the celebration a week ago, we have been gifted $77,210 (this includes the pre-event donations from our wonderful table sponsors)! When matched that number becomes $154,420! Please consider giving while our match is available!
