It is December !
2020 has definitely been a year like none other. Our ministry is like most ministries. We are struggling financially. However, amidst the financial struggle, we have continued to be a presence on the campus of Southwest Minnesota State University.
I have continued to have access to the campus and be there for the Listening Post and the Rants about Life outside of the Coffeehouse. This year, we have one-on-one ministry conversations and when campus is not in "red-zone", we find ways to safely create spaces for students to gather and share around food.
As we look forward to 2021, we have a harsh reality facing us. We are going to lose about $10,000 in funding. The majority of this funding comes from the Synod grant and some of this money comes from our National grant. In raw terms, this is about an 18% cut.
In full honesty, I am not sure how we can or will make it up. However, I am going to try to ask for donations and invite individuals to share their financial capital. In December, I will also be sharing stories of present and past.
My goal for December, is to make up 1/10 of our loss that we will see in 2021. Can you help me reach the goal of $1,000 ?
Let's Do it.
