the Signs Down Campaign Chairs
Guest Writers
Villagers,
I need you. You need me. We're all a part of God's
body. Stand with me. Agree with me. I need you to
survive. It is His will that every need be supplied. You
are important to me. I need you to survive.
In the coming days we will all be asked to come together
to do what is needed to "Take the Signs Down". We
are asking for a sacrificial offering, not one that is
made instead of your regular offering, but an additional
gift to help with the cost of repairs needed to meet the
city's requirements on the six condemned properties.
Reverend Smith has agreed that collection amounts,
expenses and progress will be reported in the Spirit
weekly. Trustee Chair Christine B. Clark, and members
of the Finance Committee, are working with us to ensure
that all sacrificial gifts are directed appropriately,
and we have been assured that the integrity of the funds
will be maintained. We are asking that each of you pray
earnestly and consider uniting with us to meet this
current need. The goal is $100,000.00. We are asking that
each adult make a sacrificial gift of $1000.00 and each
youth a gift of $100.00. If you are unable to give the
suggested amount, whatever you give will be appreciated.
This effort will take place within the next three weeks
ending on Sunday, July 1, 2007.
When you make your sacrifice, whatever the amount,
please be sure you write a separate check. On the memo
line please write "Take the Signs Down". Also use
a separate envelope, on which you write "Take the
Signs Down" and don't forget to include your church
number on the check and envelope.
I'm praying for you. Are you praying for me? Stand
with me. Agree with me, I need you to survive. It is His
will that every need be supplied. You are important to
me. We're all a part of God's body. We need each other
to survive.
