We have accomplished incredible things through God, with our Imagine giving. Over the pasts five years we have:

• Purchased the land for our future home at 9A & Baymeadows
• Responded to rapid growth through campus facility expansion
• Purchased the Midtown location
• Established a strategic alignment with the brand new high school next door
• Completed the entire pre-construction phase
• Raised and saved millions of dollars

Now, we’re ready to build. We have been diligently positioning ourselves to be good stewards of what God has blessed us with. We will wait on His perfect timing.

So, What’s Next in 2010?

This year, we are so excited and fully committed to building our new home at 9A/Baymeadows! 2010 is a pivotal year for our church. We need your participation in Imagine.  We ask that you prayerfully consider making a one-year financial commitment, over and above your tithe, so that together we can continue to reach people for Christ. Please pray that God will continue to use each of us to reach the lost, hurting, and next generation within our community.

We are setting a goal that will allow us to minimize our debt and make prudent decisions about the best possible financing options. We want to move in with the least amount of debt possible. This year, our 9A financial goal would position us to obtain a loan at 70% of the value of our cash and assets.

We also recognize the growing needs of our campuses. To meet these needs, we have included some specific campus initiatives in our 2010 Imagine goals.

Missions & Outreach

We will continue to sow 10% of our Imagine contributions into areas of missions, social justice and global impact.

Participate

Our story is worth celebrating! Be sure to stop by the Information Center for more Imagine details and specific information how Imagine impacts your campus location.  We need your participation and commitment toward over and above giving. Prayerfully consider your part. You can fill out a pledge card online or at your campus and return it by March 28^th.

We love Celebration Church

We love the passionate commitment to reaching the lost, feeding the hungry and taking care of the orphan and widow. It is because we love Celebration that we each want to be personally engaged in our mission.

Right now, we have an urgent window of opportunity to move forward in our IMAGINE building campaign and break ground on our new hub at Baymeadows and 9A this October.

Why This Urgent Focus Now?

• We are in the midst of a 90-day window to raise the funds necessary to close on our approved construction loan.
• At our rate of growth, we will reach capacity at Midtown (the current hub) next year. If we don’t break ground now on a new building, we will be forced to turn people away, hindering our ability to minister the love of Jesus to the lost, the hurting and the next generation.

How Do We Accomplish This Goal?

We can only accomplish our goal with everyone participating. If each household commits to giving, we can be successful.

• Our goal is 2000 households participating in IMAGINE. We must move from the current 970 families participating to 2000 families to be successful.
• If you are not participating in IMAGINE, now is the time to start.
• To show our commitment to participate now and track our progress toward success, we are asking each household to pick up an “I Love Celebration Church” puzzle piece. Turn that puzzle piece in to the offering with your next IMAGINE contribution and watch the “heart of Celebration” grow.

We understand giving to IMAGINE is a sacrifice, but if each of us does our part to pray and give as much as we can, as frequently as we can over these two months – together, we will reach this goal.

Celebration Church continues to grow and the Midtown and Orange Park campuses are adding services.

God has blessed us with the opportunity to minister to so many people that we are expanding our Service Options beginning the weekend of February 8th.

NEW SERVICE TIME ADDITIONS

Midtown
Sunday: 1:15 PM

Orange Park
Sunday: 6:00 PM

In addition, we will be launching new campuses the same weekend in St. Augustine and Camden County.

We believe that God will continue to increase our reach in our community, which makes IMAGINE, our building campaign for our new facility at Baymeadows Road and 9a, increasingly important.

Our new facility will seat 4200 people every service (currently Midtown can seat about 1500 per service, including the Annex.) The new building will allow us to not only reach more people, but to be better Stewards of God’s people.

Thank you so much for your continued participation by giving over and above your tithe to IMAGINE.
