Help Us Reach Our Goal
Our goal as a church is to pay off the remaining balance on our mortgage before our balloon payment in July 2028 in order to free us to invest more into ministry and see more people in our community come to know and follow Jesus (Acts 1:8).

What is the Freedom Initiative?
The Freedom Initiative is our plan over the next two years to concentrate on ministry and liquidate mortgage. Our heart is to reach out and let the community know we care about them, live life alongside them, and want to be here as a good neighbor.
Jesus has commissioned us to share the gospel with the world. It became clearer in the Book of Acts that this gospel journey begins in Jerusalem (our New Salem and North Codorus Township, spreads out into the greater community or Judea, then regional reaching in areas surrounding York County and Maryland, our Samaria, and to the ends of the earth in what we call global missions.
Liquidating the mortgage is a goal to erase debt and set us free from lenders. Scripture reminds us of the undo pressure we place on ourselves when we are enslaved to a lender. But paying off the mortgage is then a debt free building. Throughout this journey we can learn how to manage our own debt and practice Biblical principles toward debt freedom.
We are intentionally reaching our community through several avenues – supporting Pastor Reggie, supporting Katallasso, developing the Creative Arts, and adding to missions and community outreach. We also want to bless the staff who work very hard.
Please join me and the staff on this journey of ministry and mortgage liquidation.
We have made the plan, now we need God to direct our path.
Please watch for dates and events coming up in the future as we journey on this Freedom Initiative.

Come, my child, there is a place
When you're lost, you will be found
You'll be safe, and you'll belong
You will hear the sweetest soundThis is the place where we pray
This is the place where we cry
This is the place where we start
'Til death do us part
