2025 AT-A-GLANCE IMPACT REPORT: MISSION

YOUR GIFTS AT WORK AT SECOND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH!

Providing you with regular reports on the impact of your gifts to Second is a priority, because you make all of our programs, services, worship, music, and ministries happen!

Throughout the year, we will provide you with information, data, quotes, stories, photos and more highlighting a specific ministry area of the Church that is made possible by the faithful contributions of the members and friends of our Congregation. This issue focuses on our mission programs and their impact.

Each Impact Report comes with our gratitude for your generosity. Your gifts help build God’s kingdom in our community, supporting the work, mission and ministry of Second.

Together, our contributions shine the love of Christ into our community.

Thank you—we could not do it without you!
