As We Close out 2020 – Join the Miracle!

JOIN THE MIRACLE

Dear Friend of Cedar Hills,

As this year winds to a close, I simply wanted to share a miracle that happened in our congregation in the past two weeks. This miracle happened because God’s people responded in a time of need. This miracle happened because of you!

A couple of weeks ago we shared our dire financial need and we called people to invest in the mission of Cedar Hills. We believe in the call God has for us as His church and we see fruit, even in these challenging times.

  • Our children and families made a special connection this season with the Nativity Escape Room. This creative and meaningful opportunity added joy to our Christmas season this year!
  • Our youth ministry has served so many students this season. Your giving has enabled us to reach students with both online engagement and in-person gatherings. It’s exciting to see so many young people connecting with each other AND with Jesus!
  • Our Christmas Eve services made a real impact. Especially online. I’ve heard about meaningful engagement stretching from Vancouver British Columbia to south Florida. The total number of people reached when we add in-person and online participation actually tops last year’s attendance!
  • Our growing online ministry was the most unexpected fruit of 2020. In the month of December we will reach over 5,400 people with over 4,000 individual engagements of our various online postings. God works in wondrous ways! Your gifts helped us develop this essential ministry this year.

God worked and you responded. In the days after we made our financial need known to the congregation, we received over $150,000 in donations. Thank you! God’s faithfulness and your generosity blew me away! Thank you – your generosity made a difference. It made a miracle!

God will do something even more amazing through you and our congregation in 2021. Your giving today moves us into the new year ready for more miracles in our lives and in our community.

The best is yet to come!
