A lot has happened behind the scenes since we voted on a Capital Campaign at our June 4, Congregational Meeting. And we want to share some progress with you.
Last week we introduced to you our Capital Campaign Team, and they all have been busy recruiting their teams and making plans. We have a theme now, and we are please, to unveil it this Sunday,
We are excited to announce the capital campaign theme is NEXT.
Our sub theme is The next chapter for Wellspring.
As we wrote out the story of how we got to this point, it was a series of God revealing, through prayer and seeking, His plan for us.
First the merger discussions; then the vote to create one new church; the first service on Jan 5, 2020; the Covid shutdown; the formation of the Vision / Mission / Strategy / Direction / and Measures; then the deliberate alignment of our ministries, our budgeting, our staffing, our priorities to fit this new Vision; and finally, this next step, aligning our facilities to meet and fulfill our Vision.
It’s a story of God’s revealing… and of Wellspring moving forward, step by step, on faith and obedience. It was a series of next, next, next. So it feels natural that our theme is NEXT.
At our January 23, 2023 charrette, we fine-tuned our priorities and focused on three areas.
- A Next Generation Destination
- An Inviting Atmosphere
- A Center for Community
The NEXT logo has three arrows… we want them to be reminders of our three focus areas. This is why we are doing this capital campaign. And they stand for
- The Next Generation
- The Next Guest
- The Next Gathering
You will begin to see this logo on materials as this campaign unfolds. Soon, you will see a monthly prayer reminder coming to your phones. We will begin this campaign in prayer and seeking the Lord.
You will also see a monthly newsletter, coming to your home mail box with updates and more information and stories of God’s faithfulness.

In so many ways, this is so much more than a period of increased giving for a capital campaign. We want this to be a time of eager expectation.
1 Corinthians 2:9 says
But, as it is written, “… no eye has seen, nor ear has heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him…”
Let’s make this a time of great anticipation of what God will reveal to us next … of what God will do with us next as individuals, and collectively as a church family on mission.
