FY27 Giving Matching Opportunity

from Salt House Sermons · host Sara Wolbrecht

We have an incredible opportunity in front of us. A group from our community has created a $20,000 matching pledge fund to encourage generosity and help grow the ministry we believe God is calling Salt House into.Here’s how it works:- If you’ve never pledged or given before, every dollar of your new pledge will be matched.- If you already give, every increased dollar in your pledge will be matched.- All matching applies up to $20,000 total.This kind of generosity is already helping Salt House grow. Over the past year, giving increased by 10%, largely through new donors, and we are projected to finish in the black for the first time in years. At the same time, we know there is more ministry ahead of us.- As a community, we’ve named clear priorities for the future:- Strengthening ministry with children, youth, and families- Deepening belonging through groups, learning, and community life- Expanding our justice work through homelessness outreach, radical welcome, and racial justiceTo move toward these goals, we need to continue growing our giving and building sustainable momentum for the future. Even a modest increase in pledges this year could help position us to add future ministry staff and expand the care and connection our community longs for.Whether your next step is starting to give for the first time or increasing your current pledge, every gift matters and every increased dollar will be doubled through this match.We invite you to spend some time in prayer and conversation with God about what generosity could look like for you this season, and to submit your pledge by June 10.
