2025 Special Gifts Campaign In 2025 we are pursuing a special short-term, special gift campaign: “Retire the Debt & Re-floor the Gym.” Our goal with this fundraiser is to raise enough in special gifts within the year to eliminate the remaining mortgage debt of the Billy & Ann Still Life Center (apx. $250,000) and install a new sports floor in that building’s gym (apx. $150,000). Eliminating the remaining balance of our mortgage and completing the major improvement of the gym floor will free us to invest more fully in our mission to be “a generous community following Jesus for the good of the world,” toward our vision of “communities transformed because people are…” Gym Floor Special Gifts Current and previous members of the Upward Sports basketball and cheerleading family are invited to make a one-time tax-deductible gift towards the purchase of the new floor. By donating to this project you are paying it forward to the next generation of Tucson youth.

Growing with Grace As we grow in grace, we learn to jettison those things that separate us from God and God’s love and pursue those that help that love be made real in our world. In the new year, Rev. Ron Bartlow will lead us through seven key turning points in his faith – sharing stories, experiences, and Biblical lessons that have contributed to his ongoing growth as a disciple of Christ.
