Re: 30th Church Anniversary Celebration
Theme: “Ripe for Harvest” – John 4:34–35
Dear Faith Outreach Family, Friends, and Kingdom Partners—Past and Present,
Grace and peace to you in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!
As we stand on the threshold of a major milestone—30 years of God’s faithfulness, our hearts are filled with praise and deep gratitude. On June 22, 2025 @ 5:00pm, Faith Outreach Church will joyfully celebrate three decades of ministry, testimonies, and multiple lives touched by the power of God through our church and our leaders, Pastor Johnson and First Lady Sylvia Hooper.
For 30 years, this house has been a place where burdens are lifted, hope is restored, lives are changed, and souls are saved. From humble beginnings, to enduring a global pandemic, to now maintaining a thriving church that is walking boldly into year 30—one marked by spiritual maturity and the divine timing of God. Through it all, God has led us, sustained us, and prepared us for the harvest ahead.
This year’s theme, “Ripe for Harvest” (John 4:34–35), is more than a celebration—it’s a prophetic declaration! The greatest harvest is still ahead of us. God is calling us to look forward with faith and expectation, ready to reap the souls, and blessings that will come from seeds planted over the past 30 years.
Whether you are a current member, a former member, a frequent visitor, or someone whose life has been touched by this ministry, we invite you to celebrate with us and partner with us in this endeavor.
To help us make this successful, we are prayerfully asking for your support through a donation of ANY amount. We are not requesting a set number. As 2 Corinthians 9:7 tells us:
“Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.”
How this is accomplished:
· Ask the Lord to purpose in your heart an amount to give
· Give it, not out of duty or obligation but obedience to what God placed in your heart. We believe that JOY comes as faith is placed in motion by giving God’s way. He always honors when you obey over what you sacrifice. -1 Sam 15:22
Your Generosity will be sown into good ground to help us:
• Win and disciple 30+ new souls for Christ in honor of 30 years • Reach our $15,000 fundraising goal • Support community outreach initiatives that bring hope, healing, and the love of Christ to those in need
“With your help, we’ll honor the past, celebrate the present, and plant for the future.”
Ways to Give:
• In Person at any worship service with cash, check, money order, or card
• By Mail: Send checks payable to Faith Outreach Church (Memo: “30th Anniversary”)
• Online:
