How You Can Help

Starting a church is not something we can do alone. Aside from relying on God, we will also call for help from others. There are many ways you can help, and currently, here are the three most important:

1. Prayer. Please pray for us as we begin this journey and begin the whole process. Continue following this blog to know how you can pray for us.

2. Money. Please consider setting aside money to donate to this church. Any amount will be helpful. You may also consider setting aside a monthly amount to give, you can become a member of our Gideon Challenge, we are looking for 300 people who will donate $100 a month for 3 years. For the past couple years, we have been setting aside 10% of each paycheck and putting it into a special church account just for this purpose.

3. Physical Support. We are looking for people to move to New Hampshire with us, to be an integral part of starting the church. If you have ever felt led to move in this direction, this may be your chance to follow that calling. It doesn't mean you have to spend the rest of your life in New Hampshire, maybe you set aside 3-5 years and then reevaluate. This will be a way of helping us get planted in the community, to build connections, and subsequently build attendance. We are not looking to steal sheep (transfer Christians from other churches), or simply bring in a lot of people, but to make sure each person becomes a disciple of Christ.

Through this blog and a mailing list, we will continue to update you on our needs and ways you can help. On the right side of this page, there is a sign-up for the mailing list, or you can e-mail me directly to let me know you are interested in receiving more information. nawainwright [at] gmail [dot] com.
