END OF YEAR BUILDING FUND GIVING CAMPAIGN

As we come to the end of 2017, we want to thank you for your generous gifts throughout the year to support the ministries of House of Prayer! We are moving into the next phase of our facility project. We moved into our beautiful building in Nipomo on Sunday, October 2, 2016. Major renovations are complete and now we are focused on debt retirement. We can increase ministry funds and ministry outreach by decreasing debt. One of the most important ways to push the ministry forward is to sow a year-end financial gift.

As a step toward that goal, we are offering HOP members and friends worldwide an opportunity to participate in our end of year campaign titled 7-15. As we close out the year, we are praying and working toward raising an additional $15,000 over our normal year-end giving. This money will be used to reduce the amount owed toward the mortgage on the building. There are seven Sundays left in 2017, thus the name 7-15.

We’ve had some big victories this year and we thank God for His provision. We are very excited about 2018 and all that God is going to do. We have an opportunity to sow faith, prayer and financial gifts that can push us toward all that God has challenged us with. Thank you for prayerfully considering how you can be a part of moving our church forward.

This project is designed to be an expression of our church family and friends' generosity. Your regular tithes and offerings are important to the mission of the church and should not be diverted to this project. Please consider a gift above and beyond your regular giving for this project.

Please enclose your cash donations in the special 7-15 envelopes. If you are giving by check, please write 7-15 Campaign in the memo line.
At this time, we do not have the means for online giving. We prayerfully expect to have that set up soon.

All or part of your gift may be tax deductible as a charitable contribution. Please check with your tax advisor.

PASTOR APPRECIATION MONTH 2017

October is Pastor Appreciation Month

HOP encourages everyone who has been influenced and blessed by Pastor Grant Gridiron to share your appreciation.

Here are some ways to honor him and others who serve in ministry:

1. Say Thank You: Writing a thank you note or sending an appreciative email is a huge blessing to the leaders of your church.

2. Pray for Them: Praying for your pastor is a tremendous gift. Pray for their spiritual, physical and emotional health, for a strong marriage and family, and for insight in how they lead your church.

3. Tell Them How God is Growing You: Nothing makes a pastor happier than hearing how you are applying what you have learned at church and how that has affected those around you 
(1 Thessalonians 3:6-7).

4. Give Them Good Gifts: Let them know you care and understand a bit of the weight they carry by giving a simple gift. Maybe a gift card to a local restaurant or his favorite store.
