Dear Kingdom Builders,

On April 27, 1997 our church began at Mt. Zion Baptist Church at 1112 Jefferson Street. Our church for almost thirteen years has been committed to reaching out to the Least, the Lost, and the Left out. As a result, we have seen thousands of souls come to accept Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and countless others who once had no purpose or possession now living life on purpose.

As you probably are aware by now, we are embarking upon a journey of faith in a new stewardship campaign called Dare to Believe. In this brochure, you will find information that will share with you, in detail, what we are attempting to accomplish with your prayers and financial participation in what God has called all those who call Greater Grace Temple Community Church their home to do.

I believe that this is the campaign where you and I can enter the dimension of manifestation. If you will partner with Lakisha and I to make a sacrificial offering towards the Dare to Believe campaign, I believe we can burn the mortgage on our existing church, purchase the 19.86 acres of land located at 509 West Trinity Lane, and prepare for the initial phase of building The Campus in only three (3) years.

We are undertaking perhaps the greatest task that God will allow in our lifetime - clearly a God-sized endeavor! While we can’t all give the same amount of financial support to the Dare to Believe campaign, we can all give sacrificially. To sacrifice means to willingly give the best I have for a greater purpose. God will lead you to your commitment and sacrifice if you sincerely ask Him to speak to you. There is no greater investment than to invest in God’s Kingdom.

What you and I offer to God in this campaign will be an expression of who we are and what we value most in life. II Corinthians 5:14-15 (Amplified Bible), “For the love of Christ controls and urges and impels us, because we are of the opinion and conviction that [if] One died for all, then all died; And He died for all, so that all those who live might live no longer to and for themselves, but to and for Him Who died and was raised again for their sake.” Once you realize Jesus died on the cross for you and your sins, you will no longer live the same way. You will be motivated by a new reality in your life and that is that your life, your time, your talents, and your treasures are no longer yours to do with as you please, but rather you are His to do with as He pleases in bringing many others into the life-transforming, destiny-altering relationship with Christ.

Every one of us who call Greater Grace Temple Community Church their church home has an opportunity to do something that will spiritually impact this area for the Kingdom of God.

Ask yourself these five (4) questions:

• Do I believe that the spiritual and social condition of those without Christ is perilous and thus deserves my intentional efforts and investments in reaching them?
• Do I believe that the message, ministry and worship we have to share is so good that it would be a crime to keep it to ourselves?
• Do I believe that others deserve an opportunity to be saved and blessed so much so that I’m willing to forgo some of my personal convenience and make a financial sacrifice to give them a shot?
• Do I believe in the church I call home, my pastor, and the urgency of this campaign in so much that I am willing to make some sacrifices to see to it that our church accomplishes its divine purpose?

If you can say yes to all of these, then let us come before God, the center of our worship and devotion, and break ourselves open — our time, talents, treasures, and faith and pour them before Him for the sake of His Kingdom and church. God bless you as you personally Dare To Believe!

Please review the brochure and capture or recapture the vision, run with the vision, and see it come to pass.

Because of Grace,

Breonus M. Mitchell, Sr.
