In the next six months, what will your story be?  We believe that your story and your generosity are a part of God’s story of renewal not only for you, but for the church, the community, and the world. As Isaiah 43 puts it, “See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” In the midst of all the wasteland -- including fear and anxiety, injustice and insecurity, hunger or pain, isolation and grief-- we believe our God of love is still doing a new thing. We believe that through the ministries of KUMC, God is working renewal. We want to invite you to rediscover God's story of renewal, and be a part of our renewal story through acts of service and generosity.

At KUMC, we have adopted four specific priorities to help us live out God's story of renewal:

1) Live with Purpose

2) Change Lives Through LifeBridge

3) Invite the Community In

4) Meet the Community Outside the Walls

By committing to give to KUMC's budget, you are ensuring that the staff, building, and programs are fully funded to be able to continue to expand our ministries and serve the needs of our community, bringing renewal to countless people. To help KUMC to continue to help the hurting, feed the hungry, and be agents of God's love and justice, we encourage your commitment to the following funds:

Renewal for Today | Annual Budget
As insurance rates, utilities, and other building costs continue to rise, KUMC's annual operating budget continues to transform lives by embodying God’s renewal story in real, relevant ways: through in person and online through worship, mission opportunities, children's ministries, music programs, youth group, racial justice, inclusive ministries, community outreach, adult discipleship, and countless other ministries that are made possible through funding staff, utilities, supplies, curriculums, and more. This budget allows us to continue the work of opening our doors to our community, feeding the hungry, helping the hurting, and offering hope and renewal in the here and now.

Renewal for Tomorrow | Building Support Fund
The reality of a large building is that it requires large scale maintenance projects. Like any home, as years go by we have to pay the mortgage, repair the roof, replace furnaces, and maintain our spaces so they can be utilized for ministry. These large scale expenses are too costly to be absorbed into the annual budget, so often require outside financing. Your expanded giving beyond the annual budget will be utilized to pay KUMC’s mortgage and reduce current and future debt for capital maintenance projects, freeing up more funds for ministries and bringing renewal for years to come.
