Live Generously: Give

Join together with your Broadmoor family as we give sacrificially to help pay for the new building to house the Center for Hope and Healing and Shelter Ministry. Prayerfully consider setting aside one day of your wages or earnings as a special offering to this project in addition to your regular tithe to Broadmoor. As we live generously, let us continue to run to the hurting by giving these two ministries an expanded space in our community.

Live Generously: Serve

We need you! Broadmoor has serve opportunities on our various teams and areas this year. Are you an accountant, banker, work with preschoolers, are a medical professional, advise on legal issues, or are a technical mind? There is a place for you to serve! Make a difference by giving your time and talents regularly with these ministry support teams. Serving allows us to live out Christ’s calling in generous and meaningful ways.
