Stay connected and up-to-date here as we share how we’re Paying It Forward. We are working hard to improve our property and facilities while reducing our debt load. Accomplishing this allows us to create essential ministries and programs that help others see God and participate in His redemptive story.


The Pay It Forward vision captures our passion to love God, love others, and love sacrificing today so everyone who serves, leads, and comes to know Jesus in the future can do it from a place of organizational and financial health. Each week as new developments are happening, we are setting the stage for our faith family to have an incredible impact in the central valley for decades to come!

December Update

Hello Faith Family!

As we approach the end of the year, we are excited to announce that our Pay It Forward initiative is about to reach its first significant milestone. PG&E will sign off on our solar panels in just a few weeks. We stand on the brink of this incredible achievement, looking toward the future, and are excited about what these panels represent. While each panel generates sustainable electricity, our utility bill will decrease, thus freeing up money for more ministry at our church.

Every ministry at Peoples Church will flourish from this influx of money. We will be able to feed and clothe more people in need, provide benevolence for those facing difficult circumstances, missionaries both foreign and abroad, and reach out to new families to hear the good news of Jesus Christ.

Your support in Pay It Forward is more than just a financial contribution; it is an investment in our ability to reach people all over the valley by allowing us to redirect monies that would have been spent on utilities and focus them on people in need. Each contribution, regardless of size, becomes an investment that reverberates through time, leaving a legacy of change and responsible stewardship for years to come.

As you consider your year-end giving, we encourage you to partner with us as we embrace stewardship, amplify ministry impact, and make changes in the valley that will resonate for decades. Your generosity can catalyze this remarkable progress, impacting our mission to help people see God and participate in His redemptive story.

Will you consider helping Pay It Forward finish strong in 2023 with your financial contribution?

Your August Pay it Forward update

Hello Faith Family!


It is so good to take this opportunity to send you a letter and update you on all that is happening with the Pay It Forward campaign, specifically the solar portion of the project. First, let me start by saying thank you so much for your commitment and faithfulness to this project. You, the people of Peoples Church, have been amazing, and on behalf of the entire church council, let me say thank you! If all goes well, we will have the first level of the PG&E approval process and switchover done at the end of August. While this is not the end, it is a massive step toward completion, allowing us to produce and utilize the energy in real time. It also starts the final step toward approval from PG&E, which will eradicate our electric bill for the entire property! If you were at the annual membership meeting, you know we were working toward this and were delayed due to significant issues obtaining parts and equipment. We thank God that the finish line is in sight!

I encourage everyone to remain faithful in giving toward Pay It Forward. After the solar portion of the Pay It Forward campaign is complete, we’ll have around $500,000 remaining to pay off the solar construction. We will also see more than $600,000 in annual savings on our electric bill for the property.



Will you join Sharon, me, and the entire church leadership in helping us cross the finish line for this portion of the project before we move into the next phase? The Pay It Forward campaign will help our faith family experience annual savings for decades! Our special Pay It Forward offering is this Sunday, August 27, and we would love to see you there.


Please let me know if you have any questions about the solar project. I’m happy to help you in any way!

Thank you again, and God Bless,

Jordan King

Church Council President

Your July Pay It Forward update

Have you experienced God’s faithfulness time and time again? We have too. Whether He fulfilled a financial need, cured an illness, or pulled us out of a dark time, God’s favor is steadfast.


At Peoples Church, we believe in sharing the love He has shown us with our neighbors and communities. For decades, Peoples Church has impacted the lives of the Central Valley and worldwide. What a journey it has been! Since the day God called a small group of families to plant a new church in 1954, His faithfulness and our faith families’ relentless generosity to expand the Kingdom have grown into the influence we have today.


Now we find ourselves in the midst of a new calling as we Pay It Forward together. Our faith, pro


vision, and vision are setting the stage for the future of our faith family so that they may also see God and participate in His redemptive story.


September is coming up quickly and our next special offering for Pay It Forward is this weekend. Will you join us?
