$208,000!

This past December we had baskets at the rear of our worship center for three weeks where we challenged the River Pointe body to give over and above their normal giving to the Friends of North Richmond initiative.  Internally we had a goal of $60k.  In December of ’08 we had raised $40k for a special project so our thought process of increasing the goal during a down economy was a big faith step!  Little did we know, as we seldom do, what God was up to.  This initiative has really captured the hearts of our church family who generously gave 3 times our goal.  Over those three Sunday’s in December we raised $208,000!  To God be the glory!
