Homeward Bound–Our Land is Debt Free!
Oct 19th, 2008 by Mike
In 2005, we started a campaign called, “Homeward Bound” and purchased this 11.32 acre parcel on the corner of I-75 and Rattalee Lake Road in Springfield Township (approx. 4 miles from where we currently meet). This is a beautiful piece of prime property with 1200 feet of road frontage and a view from I-75, and will make a spectacular site for our future church campus. (See more pictures of our property by choosing the tab “Our Land” at the top of the screen)
We purchased the property for $250,000, and a group of pioneers who launched The Journey banded together and made financial commitments above our normal financial commitments to the operating budget of the church. In 3 short years, we paid off our land debt completely!! Our next steps will be to continue putting money aside to go toward site development work and building plans. We’re inviting everyone to give a little extra toward Homeward Bound. Please pray about what God might have you give toward our Homeward Bound project. All gifts are tax deductable. If you write a check, make it out to The Journey Church, and write “Homeward Bound” on the memo line. You may also use our safe & easy Online Giving option by going to our website, www.ijourneyonline.com and choosing the Online Giving option. Once you sign in, you’ll see options on giving to our operating budget or Homeward Bound.
