							CHURCH 
							IMPROVEMENT FUND:  
							On Sabbath, April 18, 2015,  we launched the 
							“Church Improvement Fund “ (CIF).  By God’s power, 
							through our sacrificial giving and sale of a 
							property, we have a goal to raise 
							$500,000 to enable 
							us to do the following, most important tasks: 
							
							
								- 
								
								Refurbish sanctuary ceiling.  Replace acoustical 
								tiles with v-joint cypress wood.
 
								- 
								
								Purchase new air-condition units and install 
								them the same time when replacing ceiling.
 
								- 
								
								Refurbish and remodel much-needed baptismal pool 
								to facilitate easy access and functionality.
 
								- 
								
								Redesign foyer to facilitate special needs, 
								safety, and security.
 
								- 
								
								Redesign and relocate media room to a new area 
								above the foyer to be more effective and to meet 
								professional standards.
 
								- 
								
								Fence in properties.
 
								- 
								
								Regulate ownership of six properties.
 
								- 
								
								Purchase new organ
 
							
							
							
							 
							
							
							How will we raise these funds?   
							(1)  By the sacrificial giving of members each 
							week/month out of one’s regular income.   (2) One 
							can have an “investment” project to sell fruits or 
							vegetables out of one’s garden.  (3) Another can 
							collect coins or pick them up off the streets.  (4)  
							One can bake bread or cakes for sale.  The ideas are 
							limitless.   Note that whatever we give does not 
							replace the regular tithe and offerings we give.  
							The offerings are used to run the regular operations 
							of the church (pay electricity, buy toilet tissues 
							and quarterlies, etc.)  (5) Also sale of the West 
							Ridge property will yield a healthy sum towards this 
							project.  
							
							
							When will this project start?  
							The goal is to refurbish the ceiling and install the 
							air condition while the joint evangelistic series in 
							going on during the months of September and October 
							this year.  The other projects will follow.
