Our annual report is a snapshot of FPC’s finances in 2025 with two main goals:
First — Celebrate God’s Provision
Above all, this report is an opportunity to recognize and give thanks for God’s ongoing provision for our church. FPC exists for a much higher calling than simply to gather funds, accumulate money, and perpetuate organizational structures. As our mission statement puts it, we “exist to glorify God by making disciples in our neighborhood, our communities, and the world.” Our giving is for the glory of God, for the discipleship of the saints, and for the expansion of the Household of God!
Key Takeaways
Growing generosity
We praise God that we continue to see growing generosity of our members to FPC, with giving towards the church’s ministry budget continuing to increase compared to the year before. Additionally, we continue to see growth in giving in the following areas:
- Missions
Designated giving to Missions exceeded $1 million for the second consecutive year which leaders consider a historic first for that important part of our ministry.- FPDS and Twin Lakes
Strong support continues for both ministries, which play a vital role in disciple-making, especially among children. We are so thankful for the remarkable and growing financial support of these ministries, both from FPC members as well as from the communities cultivated by those ministries outside the church.- Debt Retirement
Designated gifts enabled significant principal payments toward the church’s outstanding debt.Second — Provide Stewardship Clarity
We want you to know how your gifts are put to use for Kingdom work through our ministry programs, staff, facilities, and supported ministries. We also want you to be well aware of how our expenses compare with our gifts and receipts from year to year. As the church’s financial needs change over time, we hope these reports provide a resource for leaders and the church at large to consider our collective stewardship in previous years.
Key Takeaway
Responding to providence: In 2025, we budgeted to make minimum principal payments to the church’s debt out of regular giving to FPC. Going forward, however, we plan to service those minimum payments through designated giving especially towards debt. This change was a response to the deficit between 2025’s giving to FPC’s budget and FPC’s expenses, as well as a response to strong designated giving towards debt retirement.
Thank you for your engagement with this report and for the many ways you lead and support the ministry of FPC.
