Miracle Match Update

Latest update: We've received $10,325 for Miracle Match! 8 days left!

Just as the Budget Reconciliation Team was facing drastic and difficult reductions – the impact of which would change Calvary’s ministry and staffing in significant ways – an anonymous donor stepped forward with inspiring generosity, challenging us all to give an “above and beyond” gift this month to ensure we can raise the $150,000 still needed to fund our anticipated expenses for 2023.

Faith in God and in the mission and vision of our church has inspired this donor to match dollar-for-dollar gifts given to Calvary’s operating budget for the ten days between Friday, January 13 and Sunday, January 22 up to $75,000. This remarkable act of generosity gives us the potential to raise the $150,000 needed to bridge our budget gap – which will ensure we:

  • Retain our current staff (including accounting for rising cost of living and health care)
  • Support current programming costs (accounting for inflation in all areas)
  • Increase our support for global servants (missionaries) and maintain other mission/advocacy support
  • Care for our building and property in sustainable ways (i.e., accounting for inflation in rising gas prices)

 

Miracles are a beautiful mix of divine inspiration and human action. While facing a $150,000 gap in our budget might feel insurmountable, the Spirit has stirred the heart of this donor to inspire us all to rise to the challenge and create a modern-day miracle for Calvary’s operating budget. To achieve this goal, we need full participation from the congregation. Double your impact! Giving at any level – large or small – will make a difference.

Join us in this MIRACLE MATCH campaign as we seek to boost our budget by $150,000 in 10 days!

How to Participate in the MIRACLE MATCH Campaign:

  • Double your Impact with an “over and above” gift to our operating budget. This one time gift is separate from your pledge for 2023. All gifts given between January 13-22 marked “MIRACLE MATCH” will be matched dollar for dollar up to $75,000.
