A little bit of the history of C3 Church Watson, and the story of the journey to the opening of the Ministry Centre.
The goal of Vision Builders is to support the vision God has given us for C3 Church Watson to impact and change our city and our world. Our vision is to connect people to Jesus, develop them as followers of Christ and empower them to build the church.
Everything we do as a church, whose home is our Ministry Centre in Watson, is about this vision. Support given to Vision Builders is initially used to meet the financial obligations for our Ministry Centre to expand and grow its impact and value in achieving our vision. This has been seen, by the initial construction of the Ministry Centre, followed by various projects such as landscaping, office and foyer fit outs, kids storeroom, internal fencing, airlock cabinets, a commercial oven in the kitchen as well as remove dangerous trees.
We are currently continuing to meet our financial obligations and have completed the car park to meet our consent requirements and make the car park safer, easier and more welcoming. As we go forward we have plans for the installation of our mezzanine floor in the auditorium and the duplication of our upstairs office and ministry spaces, equipping the children's outdoor play area and upgrading our sound and audio visual systems.
But we need to consider more than just the physical building – the physical building is simply the most effective tool for us to achieve our vision and what God has called us to do in Canberra and beyond. As we give to Vision Builders we participate in all that God is doing.
Prayerfully consider the amount that is appropriate for you. It’s not about equal giving, but equal sacrifice. Make your commitment to the campaign at church, or by contacting the office, and consider how you will fulfil your commitment over the financial year. Contributions will be set aside and only used for the building fund, and can be anonymous. Due to changes to tax laws, contributions are not tax deductible. Regular giving can be easier to manage, is rewarding and builds up over time. We are asking you to make regular weekly or monthly contributions.
