Reality Church has been entrusted with a special vision from God to reach 1000 people over the next three years.

On what was a regular day in 2021, lead pastor, Joe Castronova had a vision he could sense was from the Lord. In his vision, he saw a kettle with flames underneath. The lid of the kettle was bouncing up and down.

He asked God, “What does this mean?”

Joe sensed that God was saying that the flames are His spirit and the kettle is Reality Church. God told Joe, “Its time to take the lid off Reality Church”.

Watch this video to learn about the vision from Pastor Joe.

INCREASE GLOBAL OUR IMPACT

Dear Reality Church,

I believe that God has provided us with a unique opportunity through the 1000 campaign. The possibility of impacting so many people is rare and very special. As we focus on what God is leading us to give, I want to invite you to reflect on God’s blessings in your life and upon our church. This is a very special time for our church family, which includes anticipation of even more as we seek and follow God’s will.

I am confident that in the next three years the 1000 campaign will open new doors of opportunity for 1000 people in our area and the world, and for our current church family. If God puts it on our hearts to give sacrificially, we will see Him work through us to reach 1,000 more people and move into ownership of our building.

We are now challenged to give sacrificially, over and above our current giving, for three years. Our decision to do something like this requires diligent prayer and obedience to God’s leading. Our faith in God to accomplish so much through us is something that I believe pleases Him (Hebrews 11:6). I genuinely believe that the people of Reality Church are ready for the challenge this campaign offers. With a heart full of gratitude and faith, I ask you to consider your part in this campaign. What you give is a personal decision between you and God.

May the Lord bless you and keep you, and may His name be glorified in this endeavor,

Pastor Joe

  • Please pray and seek God in this process. Be intentional and open to God stretching you. He may want to do more through you than you might initially think.

    Respond with faith to what God is leading you to give, above your normal tithes and offerings, over the next 3 years.

    You can give at wwwpursuereality.org/give and mark “The 1000 Campaign”.

  • This is all about obedience to God, the eternal souls of people, and purchasing our space.

    This campaign will allow us to deepen the connection between Reality Church attendees and the Lord.

    Purchasing our building makes the best long-term sense for the stewardship of our church.

  • If we all work together, where everyone is involved, we can fund this vision together as we give above and beyond our regular tithes and offerings.

    Not everyone will be able to give the same amount, but if we all ask God and do what He is leading us to do, over the next three years above our normal giving, we will see God do amazing things.

  • With the income from the leases associated with the upstairs of the building, purchasing the building will lower our expenses.

    Every month we will build equity in the building. This will start with 7k per month and increase every month.

    Owning the building will secure the space for our future and allow us to grow into more of the building.

    Owning the building will give us more say in who is a tenant.

  • These three goals will allow us to set benchmarks for how we’ll be able to respond, according to how we collectively as a church family are led to give.

    $1.1m will allow us to purchase our building and fund closing costs.

    $1.35m will allow us to purchase the building and start reaching the 1000.

    $1.6m is a God-sized goal that will allow us to purchase our building and reach 1,000 people in the next three years through ministry initiatives and staffing.
