Thanks, Thrivent!
Christ Victorious received a $7,750 grant this month from the Thrivent Financial for Lutherans Foundation to fund the roll-out of the ministry's new Community Connections initative! "We're incredibly thankful and blessed for the Foundation's amazing trust and support," says Vicar Tim Bayer, the initative's director. "Thrivent's generosity will be key to the sucess of this initative," he says. "allowing us to be able to equip and empower our congregation to better move beyond the four walls of our church building into our community and world. It's all about connecting people with the nuts and bolts of mission of the church: to reach others for Jesus through caring relationships!"
