This year, we’re ALL IN
ALL IN at Washington Cathedral means that we are wholeheartedly committing to embracing our faith, actively participating in the church, and relying on God’s guidance as He leads WC into a new season of worship, serving, belonging, inviting, and giving. Washington Cathedral is now ready to grow. With your support and commitment, we can make it happen. We need you more than ever to help our church become stronger and ever more vigorous in helping so many hear the good news of Jesus Christ.
Please watch the video above of our live-streamed event. As you watch through, you’ll be guided to fill out some forms. Please scroll down the page to find these forms as you watch along.
What are the pillars of ALL IN?
Worship
A new season of worship at WC will be marked by inclusivity, fervent prayer, reliance on the Holy Spirit, and a commitment to transformation. We want to create an environment where hearts are drawn closer to God, lives are changed, and His love is made known.
Serve
As a great caring network, we believe that we are called into a new season of serving that involves a fresh focus on actively living out our faith through practical acts of love and service. We believe in a hands-on attitude that extends both within the church (serving fellow believers) and outside (reaching the community). It’s about being the hands and feet of Jesus wherever there’s a need.
Belong
A new season of belonging means that everyone—whether long-time members or newcomers—feels welcomed and valued. It’s about creating an inclusive environment where everyone is seen and loved just as they are. Washington Cathedral also recognizes that each member’s voice is essential. In this new season, your input shapes the church’s vision, priorities, and direction. We want your voice to shape the vision of our church because we are stronger together. Let’s work collaboratively to establish a solid, Spirit-led foundation for this new season!
Invite
Inviting begins with genuine love for our neighbors—both physical neighbors and those we encounter daily. A new season of inviting within Washington Cathedral involves intentionally reaching out to others (friends, family, neighbors, and strangers), sharing the good news, inviting them to experience the warmth and fellowship of Washington Cathedral, and creating a culture of invitation. Invitations extend beyond Sundays. Neighbors are invited to events, potlucks, Bible studies, and community outreach initiatives. We engage in conversations, listen to their stories, and share ours. It’s about building bridges and finding common ground. inviting is about extending an open hand and saying, “Come and see.” May Washinton Cathedral continue to be a place where hearts find hope and lives are transformed!
Give
Just like the early church in the book of Acts, we too are called to have a generous spirit. A new season of giving at WC means embracing generosity, trusting God with our finances, possessions and time, and actively participating in His mission. Our giving in this season is also fueled by belief in our church’s vision and mission. When we give, we actively participate in fulfilling that vision. Our contributions enable ministries, outreach, and community impact. We become partners in God’s redemptive work.
Campaign Financial Goals and Where We Are
Beyond the normal weekly offerings, there are three areas of need:
- Funding the lease obligations
-Upgrading our audio systems
-Closing some of the funding gap between our monthly operating expenses and our income
To reach these goals, we need to raise $225,000. We will meet this goal when we receive 188 pledges of $100 per month over the next 12 months.
So far we have received $146,267 or 60% of our goal. Thank you to all who have contributed so far!
