Together, we create the umbrella effect – a shared covering of love, hope, and security that shelters our community through every season. Please give over and above your regular offering and have double the impact!
 
“Inclusive Belonging” Pledge Campaign (starting now through Giving Sunday, Jan 18th)
Inclusive: Everyone is welcome, affirmed, and celebrated – no exceptions!
Belonging: More than membership; it’s being known, valued, and loved as you are.
This pledge campaign invites each member and friend of the church to live this belonging through intentional giving. Your pledge is not just financial – it’s spiritual. It’s a declaration that you belong, and so does everyone else. Your 2026 pledge will help us sustain vital ministries like worship, care, and outreach; fund facility improvements; support music, media, and youth programs; and expand community partnerships that serve all of Hampton Roads and beyond. Complete your pledge card on-line or in-person and return it by Giving Sunday, Jan 18th.
