Imagine has faced significant financial challenges over the past several years. Eighteen months ago, we chose to slash our operating budget by more than 30% to help relieve our financial stress. This was meant to be a temporary measure. A little over a year ago, a decision was made by our Leadership Team that if payroll was not able to be met, it would signal that God had new plans for Imagine, and we would start the process to end the church. And even though we came within a few weeks of having that happen, God provided, and Imagine has been able to continue to reach people and help them Fall More In Love With Jesus Every Day over the past year. We have seen God move in the past year. Our giving is up more than 50% compared to a year ago, and while this has helped to get closer to stabilizing our finances, we are still faced with a significant need. Our attendance in the past year and this summer has been the highest it has been post-COVID. 


But our finances have continued to be in a critical place and we are currently faced with having little left. This is both a short-term crisis and a long-term need. We believe that God continues to have great things in store for Imagine Church and we want to be faithful as an organization to following God’s call. And we need your help.

IMMEASURABLY MORE CAMPAIGN

Matching funds drive

We are excited to launch the "Immeasurably More Campaign," an extraordinary opportunity for us to come together as a church family and make a lasting impact on both our congregation and the broader community. This campaign is not just about raising funds but about fostering a spirit of generosity, unity, and outreach. Our updated goal is to raise $30,000, with the first $15,000 that is given being matched dollar for dollar, which will allow us to address immediate needs, expand our community outreach efforts, and expand our support of Global Partners. Every dollar you contribute will be matched, doubling the impact of your generosity.

CAMPAIGN OBJECTIVES


  1. Cash Flow Support: A portion of the funds raised will go towards enhancing the church's cash flow, enabling us to continue everyday operations (rent, payroll, insurance, etc.) and providing intentional programming aimed at helping us fall more in love with Jesus every day.

  2. Community Outreach: The Immeasurably More Campaign aims to amplify our commitment to serving the local community. Through various outreach initiatives such as food drives, Community Thanksgiving Meal, and community events, we will continue to be intentional about our values that everyone matters, and that we give freely.

  3. Promotional: We want to be intentional about continuing to reach people in the STMAO Community and help them fall more in love with Jesus every day. These funds will be used to extend invitations for people to come and experience Imagine as well as updating signage.  

  4. Missionary Support: We believe in the power of global outreach. A portion of the funds will support dedicated missionaries, David and Laurie Roberts, enabling them to spread the message of hope and faith in Albertville, France.

  • Thanks to the generosity of several individuals, for every dollar you contribute during the Immeasurably More Campaign the first $15,000 that is given will be matched dollar for dollar. This means that your impact will be doubled, allowing us to achieve our goals even faster. If you donate $50, it becomes $100. If you give $200, it becomes $400. Your contribution, no matter the size, will be a crucial part of reaching our $30,000 goal.

    1. One-Time Donation: Make a one-time donation to the Immeasurably More Campaign. Every dollar counts and will be matched, doubling its impact.

    2. Recurring Donations: Consider setting up a recurring donation to extend your impact beyond the campaign's duration. Contributions will continue to be matched until the $15,000 goal is met.

    3. Special Offering: On Sunday, September 17th, we will take a one-time special offering that will go towards our Immeasurably More Campaign. You can contribute by giving in person during our 10 am service or by giving online.  







TIMELINE


The Immeasurably More Campaign will run for the next month, culminating with a special offering that will be taken during the September 17th Service. Our aim is to reach our updated goal of $30,000 goal by the end of this period, leveraging the matched funds to create an even greater impact.


Your partnership on the Immeasurably More Campaign matters. Your generosity will not only support our church's immediate needs but also help us extend a helping hand to those in our community and across the world. Let's rally together, give generously, and watch as our combined efforts transform lives, bring hope, and create lasting change.
