Although we will share some of the highlights here, we hope that you watched the recording, and you enjoyed the communication that Jud, Lorraine, and Matt prepared specifically for you, our Legacy Team! If you haven’t had an opportunity to watch the video yet, click here to access the just under 20-minute recording of our video update.
Here are some highlights of what we shared:
- Summer Camps: Day camps had 210 kids, kids camps had 173 kids, and then Ignite for Central Youth saw over 489 students and 10 baptisms.
- CY Nights: A few weeks ago they had the first event of the season with over 1,100 youth from all over the LV Valley and Kingman experiencing God in an environment just for them.
- Central Academy: This year we have a record number of 254 adults enrolled!
- Baptisms: We have already baptized over 3,000 individuals this year, putting us on track to baptize more than 4,000 this year. God is moving!
- Hope For Kids Summer Edition and Kick Start: With your help we sponsored over 12,000 kids, helping ensure they had meals over the summer months. Then our Kick Start event was able to provide thousands with backpacks, school supplies, hair cuts, and so much more, ensuring kids started the year off with hope.
- Financial Stewardship: We are about to wrap up our 13th consecutive year with a clean audit, with no journal entries or management comments. This speaks to our commitment to financial integrity and transparency.
