Something to Celebrate

After careful and prayerful study, plus ongoing dialogue with the Director and Board of Starting Strong, our church has committed $130,000 to support this ministry to young adults aging out of foster care.

In addition, we committed to a dollar-for-dollar match, up to $50,000 to create an endowment, ensuring Starting Strong’s sustainability into the future.

With this money, from the Kier Bequest, the organization will be able to make a transformational impact on young people’s lives. We will also partner with Starting Strong, volunteering where needed. To learn more, please contact any Mission Committee member or Ellen Clark. This is only the beginning. Our mission team will continue to seek God's guidance in looking at additional opportunities to partner with organizations in Licking County, promoting transformational change.
