We had such a great time celebrating the great work of Christus Victor this past Sunday! After the worship service where we made our commitments to the Capital Campaign, we went over to the Fellowship Hall and enjoyed a multi-cultural potluck feast! Countries from Germany to Mexico were represented in the celebration of our heritage. Please enjoy the photos, just click through to see them all! Read more…
Celebration Sunday is finally here, and with it comes the final Sunday of this Campaign. We thank you for your support so far, and for your ongoing support of the ministries of Christus Victor.
If you have not done so already, please turn in your commitment card at one of this morning’s services. There will be a portion of the service devoted to collecting the cards, so feel free to turn them in at that time.
Also, feel free to join us for the Celebration Sunday Luncheon at noon in the Fellowship Hall. A variety of foods from the many countries of our heritage will be served. Enjoy the community of our church and celebrate all the gifts that God has given us!
It is such a joy to see God working through each and every one of you to make this campaign a success! This is the final week for the Capital Campaign fund drive, and we are very excited for Celebration Sunday (March 8) to gather all of our pledges and see what is in store for Christus Victor!
We have already raised over $440,000 in advanced pledges, and we hope to reach our goal. With your help we can’t wait to see where God takes us! We ask that you please return your commitment cards to the church by Sunday, March 8 at the latest. The church Council will be meeting on the following Monday to determine our plan of action, and it is very important for them to have an accurate representation of the giving for this campaign. If you have lost, misplaced, or never received your commitment card, you can download and print a copy here. Please return it to the church Office, or place it in the offering plate on Sunday.
Thanks be to God for each and every one of you!

February 8 was the Kickoff to the Capital Campaign, and what a marvelous day it was! After a week of cold temperatures, Sunday proved to be a beautiful Florida February day. A record number of people attended and contributed to make this the best Congregational Picnic yet! There were good burgers and hotdogs, a multitude of side dishes provided by our congregation, games for young and old alike, as well as opportunities to learn about the Capital Campaign. Check out these great photos from the event! Read more…
