Cultivate
Faith • Hope • Love
A capital campaign for our second century of ministry
And now, faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love.
– 1 Corinthians 13:13
We believe the church is the hope of the world today – an embodiment of God’s love for all creation. For almost a century, Myers Park Presbyterian Church has worked to cultivate space for all God’s children to grow and flourish in faith. As we approach our second century in ministry, where is God calling us to go? How is God calling us to lead?
Great things are growing in our church community. God continues to bless us with young families joining our congregation. Over 1,000 children have been baptized since our last capital campaign. We have 1,647 children who are growing in faith through our ministry right now. Our largest demographic are 25-40 year olds and their children. How will we cultivate their faith and share our abundance of God’s love with the next generation?

Sow Faith, Root Hope, and Reap Love
The Cultivate Capital Campaign is about nurturing a new generation of disciples to grow a deep, abiding faith in Jesus Christ. It’s about sowing seeds of hope that all might experience the abundance of God’s beloved community. It is about much more than new classrooms or heating and air conditioning systems – it is about building on our foundation.
