The Leadership Board has added $15,000 from our reserves to the Future Fund.  We now have the funds needed to repair the main roof.  If we can raise an additional $15,000 in the near future, we will be able to repair the office flat roof and the small “eyebrow” roofs which cover the walkways.

Current total        $61,792

Goal for all Roofs  $74,690

Needed                $12,898

Please Pray. Please Give.
