This Christmas, we’re coming together to Give Hope—right here in our church, throughout our community, and across the world. Every gift makes a difference. Every dollar brings hope.

LOCAL — Helping Our Homeless Neighbors
Lifted Spirits provides affordable and accessible transportation for those who need it most—single moms, young adults, and individuals experiencing homelessness. Through free repairs and donated vehicles, they help people get to work, access resources, and step into stability.
Goal: $5,000

The Revelation Foundation equips individuals experiencing homelessness to rebuild their lives by helping them obtain essential identification documents like photo IDs and birth certificates—items required for housing, employment, banking, and medical care.
They also provide job placement support, career guidance, and ongoing resources that promote long-term stability and dignity.
Florence Police Officer Brandon Lindsay serves as a frontline liaison, ensuring our homeless neighbors receive support instead of cycling through jail. Through this partnership, 84 individuals have been housed, and 160+ identification documents have been secured just since January.

Goal: $1,100

2. Transportation for Disabled Veterans
. Providing $500/month in 2026 for a chaplain ministering to disabled veterans.
3. Rest & Renewal Retreat for Church Leaders
Funding a three-day retreat for 13 pastors to rest, pray, and prepare for the year ahead.

HERE — Sanctuary Acoustical Treatment
We want to ensure our worship environment is welcoming and clear for everyone—especially under the balcony, where many of our older adults sit. This project will reduce echo and improve sound quality throughout the sanctuary.
Goal: $15,000
