RIDE SHARE • If you are able to give a woman a ride to/from CCE on Sunday mornings, please contact the Church Office. She lives near Bellevue Way and Hwy 520 in north Bellevue.

LANDSCAPERS WELCOME • All those willing to weed whack and trim are welcomed to have your way with unruly plant life on our church property. There are outlets at the base of most parking lot light standards, so power equipment can be conveniently plugged in (extension cord recommended for broader reach). Please contact the Church Office and let us know when you would like to swing by for an hour or two, and we will alert our maintenance supervisor, Alex. Thank you so much for taking some ownership in this precious resource God has given us!

CCE REFINANCE INVESTMENT • Calvary Chapel Eastside is looking for investors as we prepare to refinance a loan of ~$4.8M this year. One of the main ways we accomplish that is through our own LLC called Solid Ground. This financing vehicle provides up to 4% interest on a five year term, which works especially well with low yield retirement accounts. In effect, investors become part owners of property valued in excess of $16M.

See below for details on how you can share in this opportunity. You will be directed to our own LLC, and helpful information will explain how Semble works.

Another way you can help our refi campaign is by going to the GIVE tab on our homepage. Click or tap "easyTithe" under Digital Giving, and "Pay Down Loan" under Fund. There, you can choose from among several ways to give, including direct deposit.

If you would like to learn more or have questions about how the program works, please reach out directly to todd@semble.com.

Thank you for helping us build His kingdom from Lakemont to the uttermost parts of the world!
