What will happen to our Missions Budget? It will continue as it is today, but will be part of the larger ONE FUND budget, rather than a separate one. We will continue to oversee and support our missionaries and projects as we do now, but our capabilities to provide more resources for mission work will be greater with this approach.

How else will Accelerate differ from previous stewardship initiatives at Pathway Church? Accelerate is a two-year effort, rather than a three-year program like we’ve used in the past. Accelerate will fund numerous off-campus initiatives, all of our mission work and all of our operating expenses.

How will the congregation be updated on the progress of Accelerate projects? Updates on Accelerate projects and spending will be communicated by email, newsletters and special announcements.

Whom should I contact to discuss a gift of stocks, investments or property?
Jim Shimer, Pastor of Operations, is able to assist with all such gifts. Contact Jim
at jim.shimer@pathwaychurchonline.com.

What will happen if we miss our target of $17.6 million over the next two years? Is there a chance that the project I’m most excited about would not be completed? We expect to reach the goal, despite the challenge it represents! However, if we fall short, we will adjust expenditures based on priorities determined by the Elder Team at that time. Unless we fall well short of the goal, none of the initiatives will be totally eliminated.
