Two years ago, FOGCC took a huge step of faith in purchasing our present building from the First Baptist Church for the sum of $130,000.  After a down payment, we ended up with a Land Contract for $97,500.  Amazingly, we have met every payment on time...and just recently, because of your faithful tithes and offerings--we were able to make a lump sum payment of $25,000!  God is good!  Thanks to each one of you for making that possible.  And now, we are ready to take another leap of faith--this time we have decided to call it "BEYOND THE VISION."

    For the next few weeks, until our Pledge Sunday on May 20, you will be hearing more and more about this. If you weren't at our Informational Meeting on Sunday, April 29--please pick up a packet of information available to you at FOGCC (or call us and we will be happy to send you a packet).  Basically, this leap of faith asks all of us if it is possible for us to become DEBT-FREE within the next few years.  This would, of course, allow us to be totally focused on ministry--rather than having a large percentage of our budget go to a mortgage payment. We realize that not everyone is in a position to give over and above their weekly tithe/offering--and that is fine.  One thing that we all can do is keep this as a matter of prayer for the next few weeks.
