Capital Campaign


Capital Campaign

At a special congregational meeting on March 18, 2007, and the votes counted, it was agreed that Immanuel would have Kairos assist us with our Capital Campaign.

After the different Capital Campaign Teams met, it was decided
Moving Forward in faith...
New Steps in Mission

would be our Campaign's Theme or Title.

We have decided to have the Capital Campaign to raise monies for:
1. Mortgage reduction
2. Roof repairs...finished
3. Drainage repair...finished
We also discussed replacing carpeting in select areas as a possiblity.
Once the mortgage is reduced, that will free up funds so we can think about hiring additional staff to help Immanuel spread the word of Christ to Jackson and the surrounding area.

The Apostle Paul writes the people of Corinth that they need to step up to the plate and be as eager to be leaders in generosity as they are to be proud of their other virtuous traits. To encourage them to act as stewardship leaders to their own people he first tells them how the poor people of the neighboring country of Macedonia took the lead and gave willingly and beyond their means.

The Bible assures us that we will not become poor because of being generous.
2 Corinthians 9:8 "...and God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance, so that you may always have enough of everything and may provide in abundance for every good work."

The Capital Campaign was a success. Many thanks to members of Immanuel for all your help.

We also wish to thank those who helped keep the campaign on track. A special thanks to Susan Gray for leading the effort.
