Powered by Faith

Most Faith members are familiar with our mission statement, “To learn, serve and share the gospel of Jesus Christ.” But do you know our vision statement? It calls for us, “To be a dynamic, energized, worshiping community where all are growing in our relationship with Jesus Christ, one another and those beyond our walls.”  So, to live out our vision, we need all hands-on deck.

As the current three year Powered by Faith financial appeal enters its final year, we would like to thank you for your support over the past two years and look forward to continued momentum in 2018. Previous campaigns had separate appeals at different times, one for the annual ministry budget, and another for a three-year capital campaign pledge. In the Fall of 2015, we kicked off a new Powered by Faith financial appeal, combining both appeals into a single appeal with an ask of $3.3M over a 3-year time-frame, beginning January 1, 2016.  We currently have pledges of over $2.8M, (over a 3-year time-frame) and hoping to increase the overall pledge by another $500K in 2018. 

In Matthew 5:16 we are reminded, “Let your light so shine before others, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” They question that we ask of you…are you letting your light shine at Faith Lutheran?
