Give Love 2026 | Rooted Here. Growing Beyond.

Budget snapshot

Where your generosity goes.

Our current plan totals $34,500 across outdoor gathering spaces, a multi-purpose office, children’s ministry, exterior security, church planting, and cleanup. The $40,000 goal includes a $5,500 reserve for price changes and unexpected needs.

Separate from this fundraiser: security cameras, rooftop improvements, and the much larger building renovations being considered for 2027.

Where the gifts go

The projects.

Six tangible investments in hospitality, safety, ministry, and church planting. We’ll prioritize the work, use skilled volunteers where appropriate, and keep the church informed as projects move forward.

Finish the Yard & Gathering Space

Make room for meals, conversation, and friendships that continue after Sunday.

The yard beside our church is a place to share a meal, meet someone new, and spend time together after a Sunday gathering. We’ve begun making it more welcoming. Your giving will help us add a pergola for shade, finish a paved walkway through the yard, build a brick station for serving coffee, and provide two sturdy picnic tables. Together, these improvements will turn an unfinished outdoor space into a comfortable place for neighbors, friends, and families to gather.

Create a Staff Office & Prayer Space

Give our growing team a place to work together, pray, and welcome people.

A growing team needs a useful place to work, meet, pray, and welcome people. We’re updating an underused room with heating and cooling, flooring, a shared wall desk, flexible seating, a whiteboard, and a small hospitality kitchenette.

Make Kids Ministry Safer

Clear boundaries help children learn and families feel welcome.

We’re adding walls to separate kids ministry from the kitchen, limiting unnecessary foot traffic through the children’s area, and installing half-swing entry doors. These small changes create safer, clearer spaces for kids, families, and volunteers.

Safety · Welcoming families

Improve Exterior Lighting & Entry Security

Care for the building that welcomes our church and our neighbors.

Warm architectural lights will brighten the front of our brick building, stronger lighting will address vulnerable exterior areas, and a more secure commercial entrance will improve the building. Window trim painting can wait until funds allow.

Help Launch Restored Church West Valley

Extend our generosity to a new church family taking root in Los Angeles.

Restored Church West Valley is a brand-new church in Los Angeles and part of our Restored Family of Churches. We remember what it means to be a young church. Through Give Love, we get to stand with these friends as a new church takes root.

Fund Project Cleanup & Waste Removal

Leave each space ready for the people who will use it.

Cleanup and dumpster rental help us complete these projects well. We’re also holding a reserve for changing quotes and surprises, so we can move forward with care rather than spend beyond our means.

The heart behind the campaign

Deep Roots. Open Hands.

The building isn’t the mission. But it is a home for so much of the life and ministry we share.

It’s a space where kids learn about Jesus, leaders pray and work together, conversations grow into friendships, and neighbors are welcomed and blessed. We want to care well for this place, making it safer, more welcoming, and more useful for our church family and the wider community who share it. And our vision doesn’t end at our address. As part of a family of churches, we’re helping another community take root.

Campaign posture

That’s the heart of Give Love: care for what’s growing here, and help something new grow beyond us. We’ll pursue the most important projects first and defer lower-priority improvements as needed.

How the funds will work

Clear priorities. Faithful stewardship.

The purpose is not to complete every possible improvement at once. It’s to care for the people and place God has entrusted to us, then invest beyond ourselves with generosity.

01

Care for the essentials.

Kids ministry safety, a functional office, exterior security, and our church-planting gift are important parts of this year’s plan.

02

Finish what matters most.

A shaded pergola, a finished paved walkway, a coffee-serving station, and picnic tables will make the yard a more comfortable place to gather.

03

Stay flexible with the rest.

Window trim painting stays close to last. We’ll verify final costs, use volunteer skills wisely, and adapt the timeline as funds become available.
