Results of the 2010 "More Than Enough" Giving Projects...
Faith Lutheran Church accepted the challenge to take $2000 and make it grow! The money did indeed grow! More than $18,000 was collected for the “More Than Enough” giving project in just four weeks! Pastor Jean shared some of the creative ways members (and guests!) chose to multiply their seed money. At Worship on Oct. 10th we witnessed a slide show of photos of many of these great events. We had items on sale at the church, services provided at the church, and even activities beyond our walls! It was an exciting month filled with the spirit of growing our gifts.
