Help Reach Central
Florida and Beyond!
What is the Imagine Initiative?
God has been so faithful in using Central Church to make a spiritual impact among our neighbors and the nations for over 85 years. One of the best ways we can honor this legacy of our church is to IMAGINE what God will do among us in the next 85 years and beyond. IMAGINE is a generosity initiative to upgrade our facility and streamline ministry spaces while funding the two-year missions and ministry plan of our church. Together we will each consider the sacrificial commitments God would have us make as He uses us to bring to reality a vision beyond what we could ask or IMAGINE!
What is the goal?
Our goal is 100% participation. All of us together.
We want every person who calls Central Church their church home to be a part of this IMAGINE Initiative. One of the strengths of our church is how we stand together, each doing their part, to accomplish whatever God sets in front of us. Together we will each consider the sacrificial commitments God would have us make as He uses us to bring to reality a vision beyond what we could ask or IMAGINE!
This is about honoring those who have come before and preparing for the next generation.
This isn’t about a building, it’s about the mission and it's about taking a step in our own personal journey with Jesus.
Our Church has voted to approve a loan of $2.5 million with the Florida Baptist Financial Services to complete our facility renovation project.
The loan amount is the difference between the cash we have on hand, and the total cost of the renovation.
Florida Baptist Financial Services is a ministry of the Florida Baptist Convention. They lend exclusively to churches, and the interest paid on their loans helps finance church-building projects and other Great Commission work. Central has a history of partnering with them, and even the interest paid will allow us to invest in our mission of Multiplying Disciples, Leaders, and Churches.
The loan will have a non-revolving construction phase of 24 months, during which we will be making interest-only payments and have the opportunity to pay down our principle. The permanent loan will be for up to $1.75 million at a 7.25% interest rate on a 30 year amortization schedule.
