MCC NoVA 2023 Stewardship Campaign
MCC of Northern Virginia began its Pledge Campaign Sunday, October 16.
In order to maintain the facility and meet the financial obligations of your church as they currently stand, MCC NoVA needs
just under $100,000 for 2023.
As of November 13 MCC NoVA has received 18 Pledges representing about 62% of the budget goal needed to cover facility expenses and financial obligations for 2023.
We are over 1/2 way there!
If you donate to MCC, but have never considered a Pledge before, please prayerfully consider making one now.
Your participation in this process is essential and will enable your Church to prepare the budget for next year
and plan accordingly for 2023.
No Pledge is small! Every Pledge counts!
And every Pledge is a Rainbow! A sign of Hope and Promise!
MCC NoVA’s Mission is to continue outreach and ministry to marginalized communities,
to be a church for all people, and an LGBTIQQA+ Spiritual and Community Center in the Heart of Fairfax City.
You are asked to prayerfully consider making a Pledge toward your Church’s mission for 2023.
You don’t need to be a member to pledge!
And your Pledge is just that:
a hopeful estimate of what you believe
you may be able to contribute next year.
It’s a forecast, and like any forecast,
you can change it at any point
based on time and circumstance.
Your participation in this process is essential
and will enable your Church to plan accordingly
in preparing a budget for next year.
This Church is YOUR church!
You may print out the form, and mail it in, or send it in an e/mail.
If you believe in the existence of affirming churches and denominations, and that they serve as an essential counterpoint
to less affirming voices, then supporting their existence is necessary for their future.
This is a link for receiving on-line giving.

We are grateful for your continued generosity as we move forward into the future- a future with deep needs, and boundless possibilities for our community!
Blessings and Thank You!
