I am excited to announce that the bulk of our Kid Vid Veto pledges seems to have finally come in! When I got into my office this morning and counted everything that came in over the weekend we had nearly doubled what had already come in! WAY TO GO, EVERYONE! We were a little slower to collect it than usual, but now we're on track going from around $800 to nearly $1500 as of today! With our monthly giving so far added in, we are almost exactly half way to our $3200 goal for 2010! Now THAT'S what I'm talkin' about! Everyone deserves a great pat on the back and huge CONGRATULATIONS for all their hard work!! I'm proud of all of you!
On that note: I'm also excited to report that this week at District Council we were given a plaque for our giving last year and ended up giving over $3200 in 2009 according to District records! I had us barely making our $3000 goal, but the District office says we actually hit the 2010 goal in 2009. WOW! So we should easily be able to hit it again this year! In 2009 we were 81st in the Nation for giving to BGMC among churches in our size category! Not too shabby! Let's blow it out of the water this year for the Kingdom of God and keep pushing! We've still got $1600 to go by the end of this year!
REMINDER: Because we reached our goal, we'll be having our huge BGMC Goal Party May 28th from 5pm to 10pm complete with the usual food, crafts, games, video arcade, movie room and A BOUNCE HOUSE outside! So be sure to reserve that Friday night. Your kids get all of this for free as their reward. Of course, we're going to need as many parents as we can get to help us chaperone the event. More info will be coming in the next week or so!
