As a part of the GO Initiative, we are planning a special Legacy Offering on December 17. Every dollar given on that day will be dedicated to organizations and projects we support in our One Fund budget, which extend beyond our local church. Not a single dollar of this offering will be retained for our own ministry needs at Lakeview Church. Instead, it will directly support key components of The GO Initiative, including Local Outreach Partners, Benevolence, and our partnership with African Wesleyan University College. This offering represents a significant step in realizing our vision to impact lives beyond our church walls. Thank you for honoring your commitments and even giving above and beyond! We can never outgive the Lord! He even tells us to test him on this. Watch GO Initiative progress week by week by going to our church website (lakeviewwesleyan.org) and clicking on the Hub, scrolling down and clicking on the "Giving" area.
