Each December Sunridge receives a special offering as a way of celebrating Christ’s birth. During the month of December this year, seventy percent of the balance over budget will be distributed outside of Sunridge’s four walls to personal, local, national and global needs:
- A personal need we are aware of – a young family that tragically lost their father to cancer
- A local ministry called Project TOUCH that provides housing and help to the under-resourced in our Valley
- A young couple just starting out with Inter-Varsity, a national outreach on college campuses
- A global missions trip planned to Nepal in 2016
The remaining thirty percent of our over-budget balance will seed a long-needed renovation of our Youth Center – our first step in refreshing the look of our campus. We will be sharing more with you in the future on how you can help give Sunridge a “make-over!”
Finally, we recognize that not everyone that calls Sunridge “home” is in a financial position to participate in our special offering this year. It’s important to us that you know – we totally get that, and want you to feel no pressure from us, or the process. We only ask that each of you pray and consider if God has provided you with the ability to bless others this season. Thank you to each of you for the many ways you are working alongside us in “helping people find and follow Jesus.”
