Dear friends of Strawbridge UMC,

I am pleased to announce that at last night's called Church Conference, church members overwhelmingly approved proceeding with the recommended Phase 1 Projects for our "Embrace the Spirit" building campaign.

This was a very important step in furthering our commitment to better accommodate our recent growth and burgeoning ministries by adding a building for adult class/meeting rooms with storage for mission activities and renovating the children's education area and choir facilities. We anticipate construction may start in the summer of 2025, after finalization of the detailed drawings, cost estimate and funding plan in March, 2025.

For your reference, I am sharing links to the Church Conference presentation slide deck that was used during last night's meeting, as well as the final draft of the Church Conference resolution that was approved. Please feel free to contact me at anytime via email with any further questions.

Again, thanks for your ongoing support of our building campaign through your prayers and financial gifts. If you have yet to pledge/donate to this important effort and wish to make a contribution to our campaign, you can do so here.

In Christ,

Pastor Todd Jordan
