100%

WOW! What a great congregation of people I pastor! 35 days after the pledges were made to the building fund, we have collected 100% of them!!!!!!!!!!!! I seriously doubt that there are many other, if any other, congregations that can lay claim to that fact! The statistic is something around 80% of the pledges that were made actually come in!

Knowing this group of people, now for almost 9 years, this does NOT surprise me! It is rather what I expected would happen! In fact, we gathered far more than was pledged! And some folks pledged a certain amount and their gifts came in more than the pledged amount... in one family's case, the amount give was triple the pledge.

God is so awesome!
