Jump in. Make Waves.
It’s all about the jump.
There’s nothing halfway about a cannonball. No dipping toes in the water or easing your way in. The only way is all-in and fully-committed.
Once you jump, the splash is inevitable.
After 150 years of historic splashes, It’s our turn to jump.
For generations, First Christian Church has followed where God leads. Confidently setting in motion strategies to bless those who are yet to come.
We see God moving powerfully among us, leading us once again to make waves that will last beyond our time.
Our Primary Goal:
Jump All-in.
Our Primary Goal is 100% Engagement
That each and every person at FCC would engage fully in the Cannonball initiative by jumping in with their whole lives. Cannonball is about discipleship - growing into the likeness of Christ together. We invite every person to engage with God, engage with God’s Word, and ultimately take that leap and jump all-in.
Jump into Faith
Lean into radical obedience to Christ, taking steps that lead you into greater dependence on God.
Jump into Life
Commit to living the DNA of Jesus as you love God, love everyone, make disciples, and tell your story.
Jump into Generosity
Use everything God has provided you—time, talents, and treasures, for eternal purposes.
Our Secondary Goal:
Make Waves
If we commit ourselves to the primary goal of 100% engagement, we trust that God will work through us to invest $13.3 million over the next two years to expand our ministry, impact our region, and begin the development of our new facility.
$13.3M of mission advancement over 2 years.
Wave of Ministry - $6M
This encompasses all of our core ministry over the next two years. We are trusting God to continue growing the ministry of First Christian Church to all generations through worship, service, discipleship, and evangelism.
Wave of Impact - $1.3M
We will make an immediate ministry impact in four areas that have been core to our mission strategy over the last 150 years and will be in the years to come. These investments will go beyond our normal ministry budget and will be designed to make an immediate ministry impact that sends out waves for years to come.
Wave of Legacy - $6M
To prepare for the next fifty-years of ministry, we will begin work on a major campus update and expansion. This expansion will include every area of our building and all of our infrastructure. This will update and modernize our building and provide long overdue expansions to our capacity to serve those God is sending to our church. Our core building has been blessing our ministry for the last 50 years and we will be establishing a home for the next 50.
