Dear OCC Family Member,
Because you're a person who GIVES SO MUCH in SO MANY WAYS to what Jesus is doing through our church, I'm inviting YOU ESPECIALLY to TONIGHT's First Wednesday service at 7 pm in the Chapel.
Tonight is when we as Overlake's leaders and key volunteers will be asked to make our commitment to OCC 2012…our three year VISION Campaign.
Tonight is SO important because the status quo has never been an option…and if we are to see ministry grow beyond what we know, NOW is the time for each of us to do what God has called us to do as together we become:
A community of 10,000 Jesus followers impacting 100,000.
You are my ally and co-laborer. Together…and sold-out to Jesus…we can do great things for His Kingdom in the next 36 months. Among them,
1,000 slaves set free
50 centers for HIV/AIDS care/prevention training
2,000 orphans placed in loving homes
We'll have OCC 2012 commitment envelopes like THIS at First Wednesday along with the same giving resource we handed out at last week's VISION events on OCC's unfinished third floor.
Again, I hope you've been praying about what step of faith God would have you take regarding a financial commitment to make the vision of OCC 2012 a reality. The commitment God speaks to you, your passion for what He's doing in our world through the family at OCC and God's miraculous, LIFE-giving presence in our lives will lead the way into the preferred future He has for our church family.
Looking forward to seeing you tonight,

Mike Howerton
OCC Lead Pastor
PS As always, our rockin' Children's Ministry will care for the kids during tonight's FIRST WEDNESDAY service (and Dr. Gary Gonzales will continue his FAITHOLOGY series the evening of Wednesday, December 2). |
