Worship Center Organ Fund
We are focusing on our Worship Center organ fund. You may be aware that our analog instrument from the 1980s needs to be replaced with a digital instrument because we continue to see a decline in functionality, sound quality, and parts from that era of technology are no longer being made. Currently, $197,258 has been given to the fund, and we are over halfway to our goal! Our organ selection team has selected a builder for our next instrument with a ballpark cost of $280,000. Please consider making a gift so that our worship ministry can continue to lead with excellence for future generations. Gifts in honor or memory of a loved one are encouraged.
