IT'S TIME
You are reading this newsletter because you have made a gift, attended our golf outing, or come to our annual banquet, so you already know what Youth for Christ is about. You have also probably read in our regular reports or on our website about the work our leaders Lauren and Todd have been doing in the lives of the young people in Macomb and Bushnell and their impact within the communities and the schools. I would like to thank you, personally, for your interest, monetary gifts and prayers.
I come to you now to make you aware of a serious need. We are experiencing an ongoing problem in meeting our regular and on-going expenses--specifically the things that are necessary to keep the ministry going, like the money to pay our ministry staff, money for the electric bill, you know, the little things. I know from my own experience that it is a lot more interesting to contribute to something visible, like a building or a some other project, and I assure you, there will be opportunities for that in the future. But right now, we need funds to pay our people, turn the lights on for the pancake breakfasts and the pizza lunches. So I would ask that you join me in committing to supporting Youth for Christ every month. If this is something you are already doing, thank you. Would you consider increasing your support? If you are not contributing monthly, would you consider making this change? We really need your help.
On our website (yfcwi.org/donate) you can go and make this monthly donation. If you are not a computer expert, leave your name and number on our phone answering machine and someone will get back with you to help set up regular support, or you can just mail a check to our PO Box (126.) And don’t forget to keep the ministry and our kids in your prayers. It's times like this when we truly count on your support.
