REACH | RAISE UP | RELEASE
rooted discipleship journey
OVERVIEW
Thanks for checking out our new Vision Campaign we are calling “Rooted.” This is a three-year journey centered around Ephesians 3:16-19… “And I pray that you, being ROOTED and established in love, may have the power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ.”
Our goal is to prayerfully and passionately pursue the lost for the sake of the gospel. We want to REACH the next person, RAISE UP the next disciple, and RELEASE the Next Generation to be on mission for the Kingdom of God! We need YOU to partner with us and the Lord to make this dream a reality. There are many ways in which you can come alongside what God is doing in our church and the community of Barberton, and you will find those below.
We are encouraging all of our people to join us in 317 hours of prayer (based on Eph 3:17) and to track that prayer below. It will be encouraging and motivating to see the whole church be in prayer together! We also would encourage you to take a Discipleship Survey, which is linked below. This is simply to gauge where you feel a confidence (or lack thereof) when it comes to being discipled yourself, and discipling others!
In addition, we are inviting you to partner financially with us in this discipleship journey. This is a big step in discipleship to Jesus, and one we would never ask you to make lightly or without thoughtful prayer and consideration. You will find our financial goals below, so you don’t have to go into this decision blind.
We are so thankful that you have chosen to check out our new campaign, and would ask for you to spend intentional time with the Lord as you discern what the best step forward is for your family in this journey of reaching, raising up, and releasing.

You Have A Part To Play.
Reaching the Next Person
90% of People in our Community do not attend a Gospel Centered Church. We desire to make a difference in our Community by Reaching the Next Person in your Community. Who are your ‘3’? What would it take to Reach them? When could you plan that in your calendar?
Raising up the Next Disciple
Only 4% of people have a Biblical Worldview. We believe it is our responsibility to create environments to Make Disciples who Make Disciples! The Gospel is not simply for us, but for us to invite others into. We are creating a Discipleship Pathway which is simple, consistent and relational to help invite people into Following Jesus with us!

Releasing the Next Generation
We Value Kids & Students! We believe that there is a Spiritual Awakening happening with the Next Generation. We want to be on the front lines of Reaching, Raising up and Releasing them for the Gospel! We will continue to invest in our Next Generation Programming and Leaders to see this happen.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
How much money are we trying to raise?
We are trying to raise $60,000 for our General Fund Budget! Our General Fund Budget is $372,988 a year! Currently, we are $60,000 short in our projected giving. We are asking our Campus to either start giving for the first time or increasing your monthly giving to help us accomplish this goal.
What happens if we raise less or more than our goal?
We have a plan for both too much or not enough funds raised. We pray that God would be gracious through the generosity of our campus so that we can do more ministry and invite more leaders onto the team!
What is encompassed in the Budget?
We call our General Budget a One Fund Budget! Everything from keeping the lights on to salting the driveway to the vision components of Rooted are in the General Budget.
