UPDATE: Great News! The family area is fully funded!! Construction is underway.
As our leaders sought God’s direction for the future of this church family, the idea of an Outdoor Family Area was born. Our prayer is that it will help us nurture living in community as well as give us greater opportunity to reach out in love “across the street” to our Corralitos neighbors.
The Outdoor Family Area will:
- Provide a comfortable, shaded space for people to gather for coffee or a meal after our Sunday gathering or during the week
- Allow kids to play on the playground while adults visit at the adjacent picnic tables
- Triple the size of our current outdoor area and add a basketball hoop
- Replace blacktop with decorative pavers, turf, and landscaping
- Add a stage for outdoor gatherings
To make this vision a reality, the cost will be $40,000.
There are two ways to give to this project. One option is through a general contribution. A second option is to donate money in honor of a spiritual mentor who has helped this church family grow in faith and community impact. In this way, we blend CCC’s future with a grateful nod to the past.
A special plaque will be displayed on each of the 10 tables in the Family Area, honoring the spiritual mentors. When donations reach $1,000 toward a name, that person/family is nominated and publicly listed so others can also give in that person’s honor. A table is considered fully funded when $2,500 is received.
We’re excited to share that of the ten tables, three are fully funded honoring Dave and Sharon Harris, Carol Hoover, and Bob and Janet Mattos. Maxine Fox, Ernie and Janet Miller, Doug and Jonne Tartala, and Dr. Richard Vanderbilt have been nominated.
To summarize:
- A donation of $1,000 (by one person or a group) puts a name on a public list, so others can give toward that mentor.
- When donations for a spiritual mentor reach $2,500, the table is dedicated to that person with an engraved plate on the table.
We are hoping to fully fund the Family Area by Dec. 31 of this year. If you attend CCC regularly, this giving should be in addition to your usual giving. (We still need to keep the lights on!)
Thank you for caring for Corralitos Community Church. We are so excited to see God provide for this space! May God lead you as you prayerfully consider your part.
