Generosity Update
We’ll share more details in February’s 411, but we want to celebrate some significant progress in December! Thanks to your generosity, we made major strides in reducing our financial deficit. While we’re still behind, we’re thrilled to report that the deficit has been reduced from nearly $152K to $64K. Thank you for your continued support!
Strategic Challenge
Last Sunday, Frank preached on Mark 2:1-12. If you missed the sermon, don’t worry—it’s available on our website! Sermon podcasts are uploaded every Monday, along with discussion guides to help you dive deeper. You can find them at utown.org/messages.
If you haven’t already, take some time to listen to the sermon and reflect on these action points:
- Identify your "one." Think of one person in your life who doesn’t know Jesus. Commit to praying for them and intentionally building a relationship.
- Practice sharing your faith story: Prepare a 2–3 minute version of your testimony. Share it with a believing friend or your community group.
- Make an intentional invitation: Ask someone to join you at church, community group, or a Bible study this week.
- Step out of your comfort zone: Reflect on areas in your spiritual life where comfort might be holding you back. What steps can you take to move beyond these zones and bring others closer to Jesus?
We’re looking forward to sharing a more detailed and strategic February 411. Stay tuned!
