God’s good and gracious presence has been with us in so many tangible ways this past year.
We began worshiping publicly together in March, and within a few months several new families found our church (from all over the city). We grew not just in numbers (baptizing 8 children in September!), but also relationally and spiritually as more people joined in the mission of encountering, embodying, and extending the presence of Christ in the Indianapolis area.
We consider each and every person, child and adult, a gift from God, given to help our Body grow into mature love (Ephesians 4:11ff). Through our worship gatherings, discipleship groups, and meals together in neighborhood groups, God’s mission is going forward.
Many of you have also consistently partnered financially with the mission of The Table. We are also supported by many saints outside of our local worshiping body who give consistently to our church because of their belief in our mission (such is the way of a “missionary” church).
The truth is that we could not sustain our presence here without the regular financial contributions from you and our other supporters. We have an especially generous group of people here (which is not normal for a church plant like ours!), and so we say a huge THANK YOU for your partnership financially with us in 2017.
As we look forward to 2018, we are excited about where God is leading our community. As we grow into the mission God is calling us to, the need for financial partnership will also grow. Right now we take a very part-time stipend for pastoral leadership of the church, and by the end of the year we’d like to be able to give stipends to a part-time Director of Worship Arts and a part-time Director of Family Ministry.
We are also working on securing a more permanent place to worship in 2018. (Alas! Meeting in a food pantry isn’t a long-term solution!) Wherever we land will entail a raise in our monthly rent. Both spaces we’ve met in this year have been ridiculously inexpensive. At our current giving levels, we still face a $47,000 shortfall in our 2018 budget.
All this to say: we need your continued financial partnership to join God in the work he has for us in 2018. Will you prayerfully consider how you can more fully participate in the work God is doing among us through a commitment to regular giving at The Table?
If you are already giving, please continue to do so! If you have not been a consistent financial partner at The Table, we invite you to start partnering with us in this way. Consider sitting down as a household and deciding how much you can faithfully give in 2018 as a discipline of generosity, and then be intentional to follow through on whatever you decide.
In addition, consider giving a year-end donation to help us shore up our 2018 budget.
Remember, your year-end donation will be doubled (up to $5,000) through a matching grant from a donor! You can donate using the form below.
