There have been some big developments here on the church grounds. First, the old trailer was cleared away to make room for the new church building. I’m going to update our fundraiser with the information. We’re looking at approximately $20,000 for the church building. I have an estimate of up to $10,000 for the concrete. The land is pretty level after the removal of the old trailer.
Secondly, we have filed the paperwork for our 501c3 to be a tax-exempt organization. While churches fall under this automatically, having the official designation will open doors to us, including such things as network for good (rounding up those Walmart.com orders, for example). As it will take up to six months to hear back from the IRS, we’re looking into what we can do before then.
We are working to raise funds to build our church building to house our library, our Egg Ministry, and ministerial offices. Can you help donate? As little as $2 will move us toward our goal, but larger amounts are welcome. Please donate at https://aikyamsociety.org/donate
