Building Project Updates

June 2025 Update

We are excited to share that progress continues on the parking lot expansion with some initial pours of concrete started on the north end and dirt work beginning on the east side. We will have our second reading before the city council on June 3, with the hope that we will be approved and waived from the third reading (SPOILER ALERT: It passed!).

Estimated project cost: $4.4 million
Support raised as of June 1: approximately $3.2 million.

Ways to Give

Check

Checks can be made out to Federated Fellowship Church. Please include “Building Project” in the memo line.

Subsplash Online Giving

If utilizing the online giving option, please select the Building Fund in the drop-down menu.  

Donate through stocks & mutual funds or RMD's

  • Stock and Mutual Funds: If securities have been held for more than one year and are gifted directly to Federated Fellowship, the donor receives a tax deduction equal to the appreciated value of the security and the unrealized capital gain is not taxable.   
  • RMDs: If you are over age 70.5 and are taking Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs), you can request that it be sent directly to Federated as a gift. 

Grain

There is a tax benefit in gifting grain when grain is requested to be transferred directly to Federated at the time it is delivered to the elevator or if it is in storage. The tax benefit is from not recognizing income on the sale of the grain. 
Please notify the church of gifts designated for the building project.

With all giving methods, please consult your tax and/or legal advisor for advice about your individual situation.
