Bridge to the Future

Cedar Park United is in a season of crossing—a time of valleys and bridges.

And crossing takes preparation. It takes courage. It takes faith. And yes—it takes money.

This message from our Sustainability Lead gives more context to the financial challenges we currently face as a community, and how we together, we can overcome them.

The financial choices we make today will ensure our community’s smooth crossing to 2026 and beyond. We are grateful for your support.

Whether you connect with us on Sundays, Wednesdays or Fridays, onsite or online, as a participant, a partner or a neighbour—

You’ve made it clear that Cedar Park United matters to you by your presence, your sharing of our invitations and your words of encouragement.

Now we’re asking you to make it clear with your financial support, as you are able, in two specific ways:

1. Make a special donation to the Bridge to the Future Fund.

The aim is to raise $100,000 to give Cedar Park United the financial strength to carry us through this period of leadership transition and to demonstrate to a prospective lead minister that we have the spiritual and financial capacity to thrive into the future.

We see this as a generational creation of a legacy for the future, similar to past capital campaigns like when we had a green roof installed. This time, we are investing in the Spirit of Cedar Park United.

Can you make a legacy gift to help ensure a flourishing future for the Cedar Park United community—for this generation and those to come?

2. Commit to making a monthly donation to the work of Cedar Park United.

Each month, 57 people's donations—ranging from $15 to $660—automatically land in our account. That's $7,842 that we can count on for certain each month—but not enough to ​fully ​m​eet our budget.

For us to have a solid base throughout the year​, and fully cover the $210,000 that we've budgeted for local donations in 2025, we hope to see 100 scheduled monthly donations​ amounting to a total of $17,500. 

Could you be one of those? Is the radical welcome, spiritual nourishment and community care of Cedar Park United of equal or greater value to you than your other monthly spending?

If you’re already making a monthly donation—thank you!

Consider increasing the amount of your monthly donation to help us build this solid bridge to our future together.

One-time and monthly donations can also be set up by e-transfer through your banking app.
