Nehemiah Project

Nehemiah 2:18 - "Then I told them of the hand of my God which was good upon me; as also the king's words that he had spoken unto me. And they said, Let us rise up and build. So they strengthened their hands for this good work."

As you all may know, we are in the midst of a building project at Bethany. In order to complete the basement portion of the church, we are seeking to raise $150,000.

If you've spent any time in the school building -especially during school hours- you've likely noticed that we are in great need of additional space. With our school continuing to grow in the upcoming year, we are truly grateful for the new students the Lord is bringing us, but we also need the room to accomodate them.

While financing through a bank is an option, we are prayerfully looking ahead to future projects- such as building a gym- and would love to complete this phase without taking on debt. That's where the Nehemiah Project comes in.

The Lord has placed it on Pastor Chism's heart to ask each family to prayerfully consider what they might give. As a guideline, families have been asked to consider a gift of $1,000. We understand that some may not be able to give that amount, while others may feel led to give more.

As a small show of our appreciation, the names of those who partner with us in the Nehemiah Project will be engraved on a plaque displayed in the new school building.

If you feel led to partner with us or would like more information, we would love to hear from you.

Thank you for your prayerful consideration!
