Testimonials: Investing in Our Vision & BOV
On April 16, 2023 we kicked off our Investing in our Vision Campaign. This unique campaign is historical for this church, combining both our Annual Pledge Drive and our Capital Campaign. During the worship service, members of the Capital Campaign Team lead the congregation in a Responsive Reading. The video can be viewed below. We also kicked off weekly testimonials during this service. Each week we will have members from different parts of our congregation share testimonials about their experience with the Investing in our Vision Campaign.

On January 29, 2023 Rev. Allison Palm gave a service titled “Grounding in Mission”. During this service she guided us through the past 5 years of planning that led us up to our November 2022 All-Congregation Meeting where we voted on which Building Our Vision plans we wanted to move forward with. She gave us an introduction to our Capital Campaign, which will be voted on at an All-Congregation Special Meeting on March 05, 2023. As technology goes, this service had technical issues and a video recording is not available. However, we do have the audio recordings of this service for you to listen to from our Koober site. For your ease, here are the links for you to listen to these important pieces of the service:

During the month of February, members of the Board of Trustees gave testimonials during each service covering each part of our Building Our Vision plan, which we voted on at a special meeting in November 2022. The first week, unfortunately, also had video technical issues, so an audio recording is available. For the remainder of the month, video recordings are available.
