Sustain the Mission - $20,000

Every week at Southridge Church, ministry happens in countless ways—from Sunday morning gatherings and discipleship opportunities to kids and student ministries, outreach, and caring for people in our community.

Behind every one of these opportunities are the resources, staff, and operational needs that make ministry possible.

As we approach the end of 2026, we have an opportunity to fully fund our annual operating budget by meeting our remaining budgeted income goal of $20,000.

This isn't an additional expense or a new initiative. It's an opportunity to finish the year financially strong by meeting the income already anticipated in our annual budget.

Your generosity will help us close out 2026 fully funded, supporting the ministry we've committed to and positioning Southridge to continue pursuing our mission in the year ahead.

Kids Ministry Technology Upgrades - $7,000

We believe the next generation isn't just the future of the church—they're an important part of the church today. Every week, our Kids Ministry team works to create safe, engaging, and age-appropriate environments where children can discover who Jesus is, understand His love for them, and begin building a foundation of faith that can last a lifetime. As we continue investing in our kids, we have an opportunity to improve the technology that supports their worship experiences and biblical teaching.

These upgrades include:

These improvements will provide more reliable technology, improve communication and production quality, and help our volunteers lead with greater confidence and fewer technical distractions. We're not simply upgrading equipment. We're investing in environments where kids can engage with biblical truth, experience meaningful worship, and take their next steps in following Jesus.

Youth Worship Upgrades - $5,600

There is something powerful about seeing the next generation discover their gifts, develop their faith, and step into opportunities to lead others.

At Southridge, we want our students to do more than simply attend church. We want them to encounter Jesus, grow in their relationship with Him, and discover how God can use them to make a difference.

Worship is an important part of that experience, and we have an opportunity to strengthen our student worship environment by upgrading essential sound and production equipment.

These upgrades include:

These improvements will provide more reliable equipment, improve sound quality, and better equip both our student worship leaders and the volunteers who serve alongside them.

This investment is about more than better sound. It's about equipping the next generation to worship, develop their gifts, grow as leaders, and take ownership of their faith.

Propane Fund - $17,400

Our building is more than a place where we gather on Sunday mornings. Throughout the week, it's a place where children learn about Jesus, students find community, people grow in their faith, and individuals and families experience meaningful connection.

Keeping these spaces comfortable, safe, and ready for ministry is an important part of stewarding the resources God has entrusted to us.

Currently, our entire facility is heated exclusively by propane, with no alternative heating source available at this time. As energy prices and market costs have continued to rise, so has the expense of maintaining our building.

In fact, our annual operating budget required a $12,000 increase in the propane line item this year to account for these rising costs.

Our $17,400 Propane Fund will help offset the significant expense of heating our facility, relieving pressure on our general operating budget and allowing more of our regular ministry resources to remain focused on the people and programs we serve.

It's a practical investment with a meaningful purpose: keeping our doors open, our spaces ready, and our building available for the ministry that happens inside it.
