CHARLIE & LISA WILEY

"Generosity is just being able to give without acceptance; it's being able to share my experience, strength, and hope with others in the hopes that they don't have to follow the path that I did. It's changed my life from being such a selfish person to being able to be selfless in giving back what's given to me freely."

CLIFFTON & BEKAH WALLACE

"What I have learned about generosity is that God is generous even when I'm not. He just proves himself over and over and over again. It inspires me and it encourages me; it pushes me to be better. He's enough. He's trustworthy in everything and even in our generosity; in our bank account. He just wants to bless us. If I can bring him glory that's what I want to do."

CHARLES & ANGELA PARDEE

"Our lives have completely changed. My life has completely changed. I've found family here, people that care about us, about our kids, about our wellbeing, our spiritual walk. It's been absolutely life changing. I'm so thankful for the people who have been here before us who were faithful, who were obedient to God. Without them, the church wouldn't have been here."

ALEXIS REINIG

"To truly live out the Christian faith and live in the community God has called us to, we should see those people around us, we should see the needs of the church or what the future is of the church, and we should desire to be generous because of that. Whether that's money, or time, or talents, we've been called to pour those out for the Lord and for His purpose and let Him decide what He wants to do with that."

JEFFERSON & ASHLEY CARRERA

"I learned to be obedient. Everytime you give generosity to someone else God will provide for you as well... If you think about it, people from the previous church, they were obedient. They did a part for this project to the church that we have now. And now we have the opportunity to be those obedient people to contribute to the next project of Advance for this church so we can reach more people in our community."
