Scrip FAQ
**What Is Scrip?
**
Scrip is a term that means “substitute money”.
When you purchase scrip, you’re purchasing
negotiable gift certificates and prepaid cards
that are used just like cash. You can use scrip
to purchase everyday expenses like food,
clothing, and other essentials, and with every
purchase, you earn revenue for our organization.
**How scrip generates revenue
**
The Scrip Program will purchase large amounts of
scrip from grocery stores, department stores,
and other retailers. Because the scrip is
purchased with cash up front, the participating
retailers offer a substantial discount. Our
church buys the scrip at a discount, and
re-sells the certificates to families like yours
for full face value. The discount ‑ from two to
fifteen percent or more – is our revenue.
**Scrip is "shopping cart
fundraising”**
Scrip is a popular fundraiser because families
don’t have to sell anything. Organization
members produce revenue by making regular
household purchases they would make anyway.
Groceries, clothing, toys, gifts, even gasoline
can be purchased with scrip.

$20,000 Goal Reached! |
|
Your generous spirit and faith in God’s
provision was proven again last Sunday! We
were challenged with raising $20,000 to
build the picnic pavilion and to provide
electric to our property on State Route 430.
We raised $22,000 in pledges! Praise the
Lord! If you haven’t pledged yet, please do
so! The more funds that are raised, the more
work we can do on our property to prepare
our future church! If you made your pledge
last Sunday, THANK YOU for showing your
commitment to the ministry of this church.
What a blessing it is to have such faithful
givers! Gerald Heflen and Dan Parker have
wasted no time! They’ve already started
making the calls to get permits and get the
building started! Be sure to drive by to see
the progress! |

Summer Changes! |
|
While our small groups will continue through the
summer months, the Sunday evening Bible Study,
led by Walter Jones, will be off until this
Fall.
Teens will not have Sunday night DIG, however,
watch for other special teen events throughout
the summer! |
