WRBC GIVING
Giving Generously
God influences the world through his people. He gives to us so He can give through us.
The Bible tells us that everything we have is a gift from God
1 Chronicles 29:14
As you give both faithfully and willingly, the world is changed for the glory of God: the gospel is preached, lives are touched, people are fed, bodies are healed, churches are built; and you, in turn, are blessed by God so that you can give again.

Each summer hundreds of youth from British Columbia to Manitoba gather for a week to serve a Western-Canadian community. Past locations have included Yellowknife, Flin Flon, Kamloops, High River and many others. SERVE is like the best parts of summer camp combined with the best parts of a short-term service trip. During the day youth engage in service projects such as gardening, visiting senior’s homes, making meals and helping on the First Nations Reserve. Then in the evenings, they gather to share stories from the day, worship, play wild games, and hear from a dynamic speaker. Overall, through SERVE, youth hope to bless communities by demonstrating the love of Jesus through active service.

The Scholarship Fund provides for pastoral staff as well as undergraduate students. Financial support includes young people who have had regular involvement with WRBC ministries for at least two years, and who wish to include a Christian field of study as part of their baccalaureate education. The board recognizes the importance and the invaluable opportunities that helping future generations to pursue ministry studies could bring to contribute to kingdom purposes; if you have been prompted to financially support the work of training up future Christian leaders in God’s kingdom through Christian studies, we welcome any special giving to the Scholarship Fund.

The Capital Reserve Fund, a special giving initiative, plays a pivotal role in sustaining and enhancing our cherished place of worship. Our congregation has been graced with a beautiful space where we gather, worship, and nurture our spiritual growth. However, as our building ages, it requires essential updates and maintenance to continue serving our community effectively. This fund enables us to address various pressing needs that ensure our worship home remains a welcoming and functional space.
Current Projects:
Painting - $20,000: The aesthetics of our worship space are an essential aspect of creating a welcoming and serene environment. This project aims to refresh the interior paint, preserving our building's visual appeal.
New Carpets - $40,000: The main floor hallways are heavily trafficked and require new carpets to maintain cleanliness, safety, and a welcoming atmosphere for all who enter our church.
Foyer Refresh - $30,000: The foyer is the first impression for newcomers and a vital communal space for gatherings. This project aims to update and enhance this area, making it more inviting and functional.
Ongoing Maintenance:
HVAC Units Replacement - $150,000: The comfort of our congregation is paramount. Replacing the last 6 aging HVAC units of a total of 14. This not only ensures a pleasant environment but also helps with energy efficiency and cost savings in the long term.
How You Can Contribute: Your support for the Capital Reserve Fund is greatly appreciated. If you feel called to contribute in a specific area, please don't hesitate to let our office know. We understand that each person's financial situation is unique, and any gift, regardless of the amount, is a meaningful expression of your commitment to our congregation and its future.
The Capital Reserve Fund is a testament to our dedication to preserving and enhancing our sacred space. Your generosity empowers us to address immediate needs and create a welcoming environment for all who seek solace, fellowship, and spiritual growth within our church. We thank you for your continued support and look forward to working together to ensure our worship home remains a place of inspiration and community for years to come.
