Give our Church a Lift Campaign

In April we installed a new ramp, entry and improved wheelchair lift with all automatic opening doors!  This was financed with money from church saving and investment accounts. 

If you would like to make a donation to the Give our Church a Lift Campaign, you may do so by making a check payable to Third Presbyterian Church and writing in the notation 'Lift Campaign'.  If your gift is in memory or in honor of someone, please be sure to let us know.
