For the first time in the history of The Jar, we have averaged about $600 in giving from our congregation per month this year. To put that into perspective, our rent is $550/month. We are finally, after three years, covering our rent. We knew this community would make for a tough ministry project, but we are making headway.
Besides, our God has an abundance. In the first five months, He has sent us on mission back to Indiana, rewarded our efforts in a garage sale, and prompted others to support us. We have never missed a payment on anything, and that is a blessing we can't underestimate. He is a good God Who has provided for us even in our bleakest times. The result?
--growing our JTeens group from 7 to 25.
--continuing to bless our TV outreach to thousands.
--changing the direction and purpose of the lives of dozens of people.
--establishing a forward base for God's Kingdom in Northeast Ardmore.
We have also found new partners who will eventually own the building where we gather. They have already replaced the roof and fixed our kitchen floor so that it is finally level! This summer, they plan to replace the windows, paint the outside of the building, replace our a/c unit for the sanctuary, and lay more concrete down for parking. They believe so much in our ministry, they are doing all of this without raising our rent!
It doesn't seem like much. But for eternity's sake, it's priceless. WE HAVE ALREADY WON!
But we are ready to continue battling for more. Would you be willing to help us? We are looking for 11 people willing to support us at $50/month and 10 people willing to support us at $29.90/month with a 1 year commitment. Just 21 people, and this will cover our rent and the fees for our TV program until may of 2027. According to our calculations, our current giving will take care of the rest.
We have been so blessed by those who have faithfully given over the last four years. If you are already giving, thank you. You are a part of these victories!

If you are one of the 21, drop us a dm and we will sign you up for our quarterly newsletter (if you don't already get it). If you can't give but you want to get the newsletter, let us know. It goes out next week, so don't wait too long to sign up!
