At the conclusion of service on February 22, we brought back our Family Chat. Family Chats exist for the purpose of sharing various updates to our church body about where we sense the Lord leading us as a church.

In this family chat, Pastor Mark shared a couple of updates that we desire our people to be aware of. These updates are available to be seen in detail in the video attached to this email, but in summary, the Elders sense an influx of comfort in our sending base. Since we first rolled out our Sent Campaign back in 2018, we have firmly believed that we are a church that is to live sent in order to fulfill our mission of glorifying God by making disciples.

And since the first Sunday in our church history when we preached Ephesians 3:20-21, we have seen God repeatedly do immeasurably more than all we can ask or imagine, all for his glory.

In light of this, the Elders have sensed the Lord leading a reinforcing a commitment to this sent reality. Rather than expanding our building and increasing our levels of comfort, we feel the Lord is leading us to allocate our resources to begin to aggressively pay down debt on our mortgage, so that we can better leverage our resources to live out our sent mission.

As the Elders began sensing this, an anonymous family from our church approached Pastor Mark and offered to match dollar for dollar up to $1 million over 12 months any money given to pay off the debt for our building. Praise the Lord!

In the next month, our elders will use $1.5 million from our cash reserves to make a lump sum payment on our mortgage, and over the next 12 months, every dollar above and beyond our operating expenses will go toward paying off debt reduction.

This $1.5 million lump sum payment, $1 million in giving from our church, and this $1 million match from our anonymous donor will shorten our loan by 15 years, and save over $4.5 million in interest payments, and $530,000 per year in mortgage payments.

We don’t want to put a label on specific ways this money will be used, as we know throughout our 10 years as a church, God has and will continue to bring ministry opportunities to us we never would have dreamed up. Simply put, he will do immeasurably more.

Join us in praying over the next 12 months that the Lord would generously provide and that our debt would be eliminated, seek the Lord in what he is calling you to give, give faithfully and sacrificially as He leads, and above all, pray the Lord would continue to do immeasurably more than all we could ask imagine, all for His glory.

As questions arise, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’d love to hear from you, so please email elders@redeemerbible.church with questions.

For more information, check out this video explanation from Pastor Mark here.

Redeemer, you are loved, and you are sent.

Throughout our now 10+ years as a church, God has continued to do exceedingly and abundantly more than all we can ask or imagine. 2025 was no different, and we praise the Lord for what He has done. We hope you'll take the time to look over our 2025 Annual Report, and pray it stirs your heart to worship as you read over all of the ways God continues to change lives, build His Church, and glorify Himself.

"...to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen."

-Ephesians 3:21
