The Year-End Gift is an opportunity to give above and beyond our regular tithing to meet needs and opportunities in our church and community that fall outside our regular operating budget.
- $12,000 // Benevolence Fund: Our benevolence fund helps Seasiders and those in our surrounding community in difficult financial situations. The funds meet real financial needs, such as rent, utility bills, counseling, legal care, and other expenses.
- $5,000 // Scholarships for Retreats/Trips: These funds allow youth and adults to attend trips or retreats when finances hinder participation.
- $3,000 // Non-Profit Partners: This money supports two local organizations that serve orphans. This year, we plan to give $1500 to Children of the Nations for their work in Haiti and $1500 to Olive Crest for their work with foster kids in Kitsap County.
- $3,000 // Main Building Bathroom Updates: Fresh paint, lighting, fixtures, and flooring upgrades to our men's and women's bathrooms in the main gathering space.
- $2,000 // Seaside Neighborhood Outreach Events: We love throwing parties and participating in community events, and this money funds BeBremerton, Trunk or Treat, the Turkey Trot, and other community events we host or participate in.
If you have any questions about the Year-End Gift, email Pastor Jon.
