The Faith Promise is a conversation between you and God to determine how much you are going to give to Global Focus (Step 2) this year. We don't ask you to give a specific amount, and we don't follow up with you (the Faith Promise is anonymous), but we challenge everyone to give something. **You can return your Faith Promise Card in the offering containers next to the L-shaped table in the Lobby on Sunday.** [Click here to fill out the digital Faith Promise Card](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdUAGT-qemsL5098cEKvAyrh86HLswsS58dI_zPm1mYINDEgA/viewform) --- ## Women's Event *Saturday, Oct. 3rd from 8:45am-1:30pm* [![](https://churchusercontent.com/f67e345f-1ff8-45ee-aeeb-39467e1e5aed/pco-imports/2026-10-01T18-32-12-446Z-b3eb54fd-5e64-4243-b844-567f25203926.jpg?w=1400)](https://jbc.churchcenter.com/registrations/events/3827084) Ladies please join us as we Host the “Going Beyond” Virtual Event featuring Priscilla Shirer and worship with Anthony Evans to be held October 3 in the gathering room from 8:45 AM to 1:30 PM.
