West Side Presbyterian Church
Campaign Purpose
For many, West Side Presbyterian Church anchors the local community and is the church generations of their family members have attended. And, when a fire destroyed and damaged much of their church campus it did not destroy their faith and spirit. By the grace of God, they rebuilt a beautiful sanctuary and expanded facility with ample room for worship, fellowship, education and community out-reach.
The new facility’s construction cost was covered by the fire insurance settlement and the congregation’s generous support and contributions to three capital campaigns. However, continued debt meant the church could have minimal annual budget increases and had to reduce their mission budget, cut staff and staff pay raises, and cut program ministry budgets significantly.
West Side Presbyterian was determined to show the utmost in appreciation for those who had sacrificed again and again through their earlier campaigns. To appreciate how their entire faith community benefited from their new and expanded facility. And to give all of their families, particularly their newer members, an opportunity to become more actively involved in supporting the church. Their goal was to support future church programming and ministries by paying off their debt fully through their Honoring Our Past, Blessing Our Future debt reduction campaign.
