Compassion Christian Church
“In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus Himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’” Acts 20:35
Twelve years ago as a church of 1,600 people, we undertook a $14.7 million project to build the Henderson Campus main building. Within five years, our faithful members had given more than enough to pay for the project. Today we are a church of more than 8,000 people, five times larger and stronger.
In 2010 the people of our church committed to expanding and renovating buildings on Henderson Campus and to provide funds for permanent homes for East and Effingham. We also asked our church family to relieve the spiritual and physical poverty of families here in Savannah and in Guatemala. As we suffered the worst economy in decades, God provided in miraculous ways, honoring the faith of those who believed and made bold commitments.
Over the last 10 years, our church has added $47 million in facilities. We have paid off $34 million and in those same 10 years, given over $10 million to Global Outreach.
The promises of Jesus are true. He is with us every step of the way as we respond to His call to make disciples.
Giving cheerfully and sacrificially of our finances is part of our worship. As believers our goal is to wisely steward the God-given resources with which we have been blessed.
We are called to give generously, each according to our individual means, gladly sacrificing for the sake of the gospel because Jesus sacrificed for us and all we have is His.
Please fast and pray with the leaders of our church about the sacrifice you should make for The ONE Campaign. Spend time in God’s Word and in His presence. Ask for direction as you and your family make a commitment to The ONE Campaign.
The ONE Campaign is addressing special needs, so we hope you will make a special sacrifice in addition to your regular giving.
Our church’s ministries will continue to change lives here and around the world, so please continue to give your tithe and Faith Promise missions offerings in addition to the offering Jesus leads you to give to The ONE Campaign.
