In 2020, Midwest Mission’s board of directors and staff began to dream and plan what it would look like for Midwest Mission to have solar panels. With a desire to steward resources well, and go more “green,” the Solar Project began.
The plans were made, and God continually showed up, orchestrating the work and connections in his perfect timing. This has been a long process as we fundraised, prayed, and waited for the construction to start, but we are excited for the end-result and the good it will do for the ministry.
This week, after a year of anticipation, the Solar Panels were installed on the warehouses.
The total project cost was $154,986, but with $66,632 of incentives, the net cost was $88,354.
The best part? The estimated 25-year electric bill savings is $308,494. Meaning, every $1 that was donated to the campaign will save us a minimum of $3.50 in electric costs.
Thank you for continuing to prioritize the stewardship of the resources God gives us. God continues to bless Midwest Mission in unthinkable ways!
