Earlier this year, we shared presentations outlining the challenges and opportunities facing senior care and the future of this ministry. We are grateful for the thoughtful feedback, survey responses, and conversations that followed. After prayerful consideration, the Board of Directors has approved the Assisted Living building project at the Apostolic Christian Home of Eureka. We believe this project is an important step in meeting the future needs of seniors while strengthening the long-term sustainability of our mission. The design team is now finalizing plans and working to make the best use of resources as they prepare for construction bidding and final cost evaluation. We are thankful for the support expressed throughout this process, including the financial commitments already made toward this effort. We encourage continued prayers for wisdom, unity, and God's blessing as plans progress. Please prayerfully consider partnering with us through our capital campaign, “A Legacy of Care, A Future of Choice”. Donations designated for the Assisted Living Building Campaign will help support development of the new facility and the future ministry of the Home. Project updates will continue to be shared as significant milestones are reached. Please contact your local Board Members (Bro. Rod Hinrichsen & Bro. Darrell Stoller), with any questions or feedback.

A new Jobs section in AC Central — now open to any employer (business or nonprofit) who wishes to recruit Apostolic Christians — has been added to the latest update of AC Central (version 4.3). For a small fee, employers can post jobs to reach all registered AC Central users. And job seekers can now filter openings by location, job type, industry, pay, etc. and set up notifications. This service was created to respond to the multitude of requests from brethren — and other employers — who wanted some way to publicize their job openings to ACs across the country. This new service will help employers reach over 12,000 registered AC Central users across the country, enabling them to find honest, hardworking employees while — in some cases — facilitating crosspollination of members from one congregation to another. Any employer can use this service. It is NOT limited to just nonprofit mission-oriented jobs. This being a brand-new service, it may take a while for word to get around and employers to start using the service, so job seekers, are encouraged to check back regularly.
