Ginghamsburg Church
2018 Annual Report
Our church is blessed to have the support of the community in the Miami Valley and beyond. This report showcases where we’re spending money and the fruit that God is pouring out in response to our sacrifice and labor.
One of our biggest values at Ginghamsburg is transparency. This report is an effort to keep the window into this ministry as clear as possible. However, we can’t anticipate the curiosities of each individual; if you want more information please reach out and we’d love to discuss things with you in more detail.
2018 was a big year!
