Announcements for FBCG
REPLACING THE HVAC IN THE SANCTUARY
The church unanimously approved the bid to replace the sanctuary HVAC system, and work will begin soon. This upgrade is essential for the comfort and ministry of our church.
We ask you to prayerfully consider making a gift above and beyond your regular tithes to help fund the replacement. Contributions received will be applied first toward the project; any remaining balance will be covered from our Long-Term Investment Fund. It is our plan to restore that fund over time through surpluses from the general fund. Our goal is to reach $74,309.94 and as of February 15th, we have collected $43,067.00. Praise God!
If you would like to give toward the HVAC project, please designate your gift “Sanctuary HVAC” (online, by check, or through the offering). If you have questions or need more information, contact Kathy at: info@fbcgettysburg.net
