BUILDING RENOVATIONS
After 25 years in our current building, Hayward Wesleyan Church is ready for a facelift! For the past 3 years, conversations have been happening in our church board, staff, and in listening sessions, about some possible and needed renovations. The board has prioritized a list of projects, including upgrades to: sanctuary and sound system, restrooms, foyer, gym, theater room, playground.   
Why do this? The answer is two-fold: Stewardship and Mission
How much will it cost? We estimate the total cost of these renovations will be approximately $183,000. The good news is, because of planning and saving, in addition to being blessed recently with some large gifts towards these projects, we already have a good balance on hand and will need to raise only about $50,000. With God’s help, we can certainly raise these remaining funds!
We invite you to give. 1 Corinthians 9:77—“Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”
We invite you to engage. Some of this work will be hired, but there will be much work that can be done by volunteers.
For more details on this renovation venture, please visit www.hwc.church/renovations.
