There Is More is a church-wide journey to inspire us to live and give beyond ourselves. This journey includes a six-week message series, small group experience, and daily devotional. No matter where we are in our walk with Christ, He’s always encouraging and inspiring each of us to take our next step and do our part in reaching people and building community.

Together, we’ll grow in our relationship with God and build our faith as we look beyond where we are to infinitely more. Join us as we discover that there is more God wants to do in our faith, family, church, and community.

PROJECT DETAILS

With unprecedented growth in all ministry areas of our church campus, there is certainly cause for celebration!

However, with the continued growth comes challenges that can impact our first-time guest experience and ultimately influence how we reach people in Youngsville and surrounding areas. To continue caring for every person who walks in the doors at Youngsville Community Church  facilities need to be updated, improved, and expanded upon in a substantial way.

 There is More is an all-church campaign designed to meet the $1.9M needed to fund the expansion project and renovations which will allow us to start the project by late 2025.

  • Expand existing auditorium from 180 seats to 300 (2,292 sq. ft.)

  • Add three additional children’s classrooms (2,540 sq. ft.)

  • Add children’s restrooms in children’s area

  • Close in current drive through for additional common space (930 sq. ft.)

  • Add new covered drive through

  • Add additional parking

YOUR OPPORTUNITY

The There Is More Campaign
A three-year journey of faith and action, the There Is More campaign is designed to meet the needs of our building expansion projects. This God-sized vision is beyond the ability of any one person, but together we can accomplish something extraordinary.  To those who have already made and faithfully followed through with financial and prayer commitments, we are so deeply thankful for you.

As we enter the second year of this journey, we need everyone’s involvement to reach our goal of $1.9 million. The Pledge Card you’ll receive during this series is an invitation to participate both prayerfully and financially, if you are not already doing so. By making a financial commitment over time, you’ll join in playing a vital role in bringing this vision to life.

Key Campaign Milestones

  • Pledge Sunday (January 26)
    Bring your completed pledge cards as we collectively commit to this vision.

  • Miracle Offering Sunday (February 9)
    On this special day, we’ll each present our best one-time cash gifts (to be counted toward the overall total pledge commitment). Every gift received will contribute directly to the funds needed to launch these building and renovation projects.

A Spiritual Journey

As you prayerfully consider your involvement, see this as an opportunity to grow in faith. The specific amount will differ for each person, but everyone can do something. Your pledge is over and above your regular tithes and offerings, reflecting a step of faith towards God’s plan for our community.

Visualizing Impact

Use the pledge chart to see how your weekly or monthly gift makes a big impact over time. Together, these individual commitments will create a legacy that blesses generations to come.

Let’s join hands and hearts to embrace the There Is More campaign, believing in a future shaped by faith, generosity, and unity.

CREATIVE WAYS TO GIVE

Gifts In-kind / Appreciable Assets Stocks, bonds, real estate and other assets provide ample giving opportunities coupled with considerable tax savings. Our Finance Team will help you donate appreciable assets, give stocks in certifi cate form, and make broker-to-broker transfers to optimize charitable contribution benefi ts and capital gains savings

Automatic Contributions By signing up for online giving, either through your bank or our website, you can ensure your gift is automatically transferred on the day(s) of your choosing. This is an easy way to make your giving hassle-free and consistent.

Cash Flow Gifts You can give significantly by contributing smaller amounts at higher frequencies. Weekly, bi-monthly or monthly giving allows substantial gifts to be reached in smaller steps.

Diverted-Funds Gifts Some easy lifestyle adjustments can help allow you to increase your giving to God’s work. Diverting funds from your budget for entertainment, dining out, subscriptions, etc., can help you free up funds to have a significant impact on your giving.

Delayed Non-Essential Purchases Forgoing some big purchases, such as automobiles, vacations, clothing, trips, etc., for a few years can create substantial giving opportunities.

Raises, Bonuses, Extra Work Income Dedicating forthcoming raises or bonuses, or utilizing your hobbies or skills can create extra revenue you can funnel into God’s kingdom.

Income-Producing Assets Any interest income, payments from rental properties, or monies from other income-producing assets can provide a source for increased giving.

Special Sales Consider selling unused items, hosting a garage sale or holding an online auction and giving the proceeds toward There Is More. The sale of major assets, such as a house, car, land or a business can also provide previously untapped revenue for giving.

Tax Refunds & Savings Added giving to Youngsville Community Church can create tax savings. By giving these tax refunds and savings back to God’s work, you can increase your total giving.

Freedom From Debt As you look ahead to the next couple of years, you may discover some current loans or debt obligations that will be fulfilled. By investing the money you would have been paying on a car or credit card balance once it’s paid off, you can free up additional funds to give.
