Equipment Offering


This past Sunday we had a special offering at MKCC towards equipment for our new auditorium. The consistent generosity of the people who call MKCC home never ceases to amaze me.

He is a copy of a letter from Pastor Mark sent to the church today.

Dear Church Family

Time 2 Build – Equipment Offering

It is hard to put into words how generous our church has been over the last 4 years since we launched our building project in November 2006. It has been extraordinary how God has been teaching us through this time. Gifts have ranged from pennies given by our children in Kidz Church to a one off gift of £20,000. However, as we said at the beginning, it is about equal sacrifice not equal gifts.
Through Time 2 Build we have been able to invest £1 million into our building project. Totally renovating the Day Nursery and Kidz Church as well as starting our new auditorium. This was followed in November 2009 by Time 2 Build 2 where we pledged to give over £300,000 over the next 3 years.

Then over the last month we pledged to purchase 700 chairs which including gift aid will be approximately £24,000. Then yet again this past Sunday so many of you stepped up to the mark again and gave sacrificially to assist with the purchase of equipment such as PA, AV & Stage Lighting. The total given, pledged and gift aid was £26,000.

Following years of generosity, giving around £50,000 in the last month for chairs and equipment is just incredible. I want to thank you so much for your generosity at this present time and over the last 4 years and pray that God will bless us with a huge harvest of people coming to know Jesus at MKCC.

If for any reason you were not able to be with us on Sunday you can drop a gift into our offering at any time and note “Equipment Fund” on the envelope or you can give online by visiting our website.

Lets pray keep praying for our special opening services:

Saturday 30th & Sunday 31st October with Bobby Ball

Sunday 7th November with George Ridley & Andrew Shearman

Be courageous

Pastor Mark
