“Commitment Sunday”
September 22, 2022
Excitement & anticipation is “building!” It’s hard to believe “Commitment Sunday” is almost here! This is the day we have all been waiting for where we get to say a big “YES” to putting down permanent roots in the Summerville community! By roots, I mean constructing a home base where Phase 1 will consist of an approx. 27K sqft facility on 6 acres (of the 12 acre church parcel of land) next to ARHS.
“Praise God from whom all blessings flow!” –2 Corinthians 13:14
This is an exciting time, and we want everyone to feel connected and a part of the process and the journey. To that end, this Sunday, September 25th is Commitment Sunday where you will have the opportunity to turn-in your Commitment Cards during the morning worship service. Pastor Jenn will pray over them, and we will celebrate T-O-G-E-T-H-E-R what God has done to bring us to this point!
“This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.” -Psalm 118:24
Over the next two years, we are asking everyone to stretch their regular giving and one-time contribution(s) to the church for construction-related expenses. We will also soon be entering the Land Preparation phase of the building process and we hope to self-finance that cost, leaving the construction loan for the last phase – Vertical Construction.
“Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.” -Mark 11:24
SO, please prayerfully consider what you can do to make the Ashley Ridge Church home base a reality. We are so thankful for you as our constant source of inspiration, your dedication, commitment & continued generosity!!!
“They are always generous and lend freely; their children will be a blessing.” -Psalm 37:26
