Family Focus Offering: June 20, 2010



Dear Church Family,

I love being the pastor of a family-focused church. I can't tell you how refreshing it is to be a part of a community of faith that values families and are committed to providing a place for families to connect with our church family through loving relationships.

I am also excited, as a parent of three beautiful daughters, to be a part of a church family that envisions a "kid-focused" environment that will facilitate learning and fun activities not just for my children, but also hundreds of children. If we, as a church family, want to see this vision become a reality, then we will need to provide a clean and attractive environment.

The Lord presented us with an opportunity to provide this environment when our roof collapsed in our Blue Room Building and the Children's Wing. As a member of First Southern, you have an opportunity to help this vision become a reality so that we can continue to share God’s love by leading people to life-change in Jesus Christ.

On June 20, 2010 we are going to be taking a special offering to remodel the Children's Wing. Our goal is to raise $100,000 above and beyond the regular tithes of God's people. Here are the things we want to accomplish with this offering:

• Re-roof both Blue Room Building and Children’s Wing
• Replace damaged ceilings and lights and install insulation where needed.
• Bathrooms remodeled
• Paint the Blue Room Building
• New Flooring in some areas
• New, energy-efficient windows
• Paint the Children's Wing

God has called us to reach families and one of the ways we do that is by providing clean and attractive facilities. Will you prayerfully consider how God wants to use you to reach our goal financially? God wants to do great things through our church! However, we must be willing to step out in faith and attempt great things for God.

Let's reach more families together,

Pastor Patrick
