Here are some of the ways we reached outside our walls into our community in 2019:

Easter On The Field
Tower Road Seamless Summer
July 4 Downtown Outreach
Tower Road Backpacks
Halloween Outreach
Light Up Ellijay
Community Christmas Eve Service

Tower Road Playground

Several years ago, we established the Judy Valdez Memorial Playground as a place for Tower Road families to laugh and play together. THIS year, we conducted a MAJOR upgrade, rebuilding the retaining wall, regrading, beautiful turf, and brand new equipment!


This is just one of the ways we are "For Gilmer."

Current Property

The Kidz Zone received a MAJOR air conditioning upgrade this year (finally!!) Now, they can share the love of Christ with kids minus the sweat!


It is pretty obvious that our facility will continue to need lots of TLC, but it will get us by for a little while longer!

New Property

Giving toward our new property continued to be strong this year.  After paying for initial assessments, taxes, conceptual plans, core samples, and other expenses, we are putting all money toward PAYING OFF our principle to own it free and clear very soon!

This is our "agressive paydown plan," which we'll do by your ongoing gifts and keeping our budget spending very tight during 2020.

We actually believe that Jesus calls us to Love God, Love others, and to make disciples because he wants us to do exactly that.

Why don't you give it a year and see what He might just do in your life when you live in obedience to him?
