Year End Thank You

While this past year has been a year unlike any other —one thing has stayed the same—our God is faithful! It’s been amazing to see how He’s worked through you, His church.

Every year, we get to marvel at how He allows us to invest into furthering the gospel and building up the kingdom of God here in South Florida and around the world. And this year was no different. Because of your continued faithfulness and partnership—even in the middle of so much uncertainty and messiness—the Lord positioned our church as a beacon of hope in the communities we serve. There is still time for you to make a year-end gift as we end 2020 with grateful hearts to our generous God.

Thank you for getting in the story this year!
