MISSIONS:
Support Leighton Hinshaw and Arvada Young Life
We’re thrilled to share that Leighton Hinshaw has stepped into an incredible opportunity to serve as Student Staff with Arvada Young Life, specifically working with Wyldlife at Oberon Middle School. Through this role, Leighton will be leading leaders, planning weekly club meetings, connecting with students, and helping middle schoolers experience the love of Jesus through relationships and ministry.
This mission is only possible with the support of generous partners like you. Leighton is raising $12,000 annually to fund this ministry. Your partnership—through monthly giving, one-time gifts, or prayers—will make a difference in reaching lost kids and empowering them to grow in faith.
Why Young Life?
Leighton’s passion for ministry started in high school with Young Life, was deepened through YWAM (Youth With A Mission), and continues as he serves kids in Colorado. His heart for sharing Jesus’ love and building community is the driving force behind this calling.
How You Can Help:
-
Become a monthly financial partner to support this ministry year-round.
-
Give a one-time gift to help Leighton meet his goal.
-
Commit to praying for Leighton, the leaders, and the students at Oberon Middle School.
All donations are tax-deductible, and Leighton will keep supporters updated with monthly check-ins to share stories of impact and progress in the program.

GIVE TO NEIGHBORHOOD
We have experienced a great year of giving in 2023 at Neighborhood. We wanted to thank you for your generosity and obedience to the Lord as you tithe and give gifts regularly to keep this ministry going and growing. Generosity is at the heart of our church community, and we believe in the power of giving to make a positive impact in the lives of those in our neighborhood and beyond. Your tithes and offering support our basic mission efforts of providing salary for our pastors and general building costs. In essence, our current giving is simply keeping our church going. Our desire for 2024 is to move beyond our baseline giving. We are praying we move beyond going forward in our finances to growing forward in our finances so our impact can even be greater.
Jesus speaks to this investment of giving and generosity:
Luke 6:38 (ESV): 38 give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”
Join us as we look forward to 2024. Here’s to growing forward together.
