Every year, the Fall Offering gives us a chance to support ongoing ministry and ministry that goes beyond our weekly rhythms. A portion of every dollar given will move the mission of Long Hollow forward locally, nationally, and globally. This year, we’re participating in God's mission to bring hope where there's despair, healing where there's brokenness, and love where it's needed most by expanding prison ministry with a new campus launch, creating more storage space to feed students in Sumner County, and investing in medical missions with the Raineys in the Dominican Republic.
YOUR INVITATION TO JOIN WHAT GOD IS DOING
Your generous giving to the Fall Offering is a way to be part of what God is doing near and far. We give through Long Hollow because we can do more together than we could ever do alone. Together, we can change stories; and when we change stories, we can change legacies.
Our church goal for this fall is $975,000, which breaks down to a family goal of $700. Some can do more, some can do less. The amount isn’t important. What’s important is that we each follow what God is calling us to.
Give to the Fall Offering on Sunday, October 26.
Expanding Prison Ministry
Since spring, God has opened incredible doors for us to launch campuses in three correctional facilities: Sumner County Jail, Trousdale Prison, and Walker State Prison. Lives are being transformed, hearts are being healed, and disciples are being made in hard places.
But God isn't done yet. Robertson County Jail is our next frontier, where men and women desperately need to encounter the love of Jesus. Your generosity will help us continue carrying hope behind prison walls, proving that no one is beyond God's reach.
Expanding End Hunger in Sumner
In our community, there are students who leave school knowing they won’t eat their next meal until they’re back there the next day. Students who might go days without food on the weekends may be friends and classmates with your kids. You may see them at church every week - hiding in plain sight.
Right now, we're already feeding 150 students across 7–8 schools through End Hunger in Sumner. But the need is so much greater, and we want to do more. The only thing standing between us and feeding hundreds more children is space. When you give to the Fall Offering, you're creating room to fill more backpacks and ensure more kids never have to choose between learning and hunger.
Supporting Medical Missions
Your giving through Long Hollow already supports 21 missionaries around the globe, and this fall, we have the chance to bless our partners, the Raineys, in an extraordinary way. They're launching a healthcare ministry in the Dominican Republic that will bring 2–3 medical mission teams each year to serve communities with limited access to care.
Through our Fall Offering, we can fully cover every medical mission trip to serve with the Raineys for the next year. When we send medical teams, we're a force for good in places where physical healing opens hearts to spiritual transformation.
