from Pastor Paul Mumaw.

Our church is committed to using your generous contributions to further the mission and ministry of Christ in our community and beyond. Each year, we allocate our resources to several key areas:
We carefully review and revise this budget on at least an annual basis to ensure that our resources are being used wisely and effectively in support of our mission and values.

Worship
Worship at Genesis is more than just music on Sundays—it’s a lifestyle of adoration for God. We sing and learn scripture together, deepening our understanding and commitment to His Word.
WORSHIP By the numbers:
953 | Average weekly attendance in 2024
24 | Baptisms in 2024
13.5% | Growth of weekly attendance

“Serving at Genesis has truly broken me out of my shell and opened up a whole new chapter of life for me on my walk of faith...It may seem small, but using skills that God has given me to help spread His Word has changed my life and gifted me with a sense of purpose; or rather a role to play in the evangelism of our community.”

GENKIDS
This year, we partnered with hundreds of parents and volunteers to help children build a personal relationship with Jesus, through creativity, relationships, and age-appropriate Bible teaching.
GENKIDS By the numbers:
184 | Weekly average of GenKids in 2024
17.2 | Percentage of weekly attendance in GenKids growth from 2023
204 | Unique GenKids volunteers in 2024
Just recently, a 7-year-old “GenKid” put his newfound understanding of the “3 Circles” into his art.
The child’s parent found a drawing of the “3 Circles” in the child's notebook, perfectly capturing the Gospel message: God’s perfect plan, the brokenness caused by sin, and how Jesus restores everything.
Moments like this remind us of the power of teaching the Gospel in ways kids can understand. The "3 Circles" is more than just a lesson; it’s a tool that helps children see God’s big story in their own lives. As they begin to share that story with others, we see how these little hearts are being shaped for a lifetime of faith.
GSM
Genesis Student Ministry (GSM) partners with parents and volunteers to help students grow closer to God through intentional disciple-making relationships, conferences, and programs with the goal of awakening a generation to God's call on their lives.
GSM By the numbers:
113 | Average weekly attendance
Set record attendance for summer conferences:
114 | Students at summer conferences
24 | Leaders at summer conferences
One of our high school students relentlessly invited an unchurched friend to the MOVE conference last summer. The friend finally said yes, went to MOVE, and then made the decision to give her life to Jesus. She was baptized in the fall and now she’s also taking steps in making disciples.
GROUPS
At Genesis, groups serve as smaller communities within the larger church, providing the primary environment for disciple-making and spiritual growth.
GROUPS By the numbers:
42 | Unique groups
57% | Genesis adults in a group
382 | Group participants
One group celebrated two baptisms on February 16th, 2025! It’s amazing to see how the Ramirez’s (pictured) decision last fall to lead a group was inspired by noticing people near them on Sundays who weren’t connected. God has been growing everyone in the group, shaping them into stronger disciples.
OUTREACH
Outreach at Genesis involves building partnerships locally and globally to fulfill Jesus' command in Acts 1:8, with every dollar given supporting missionaries who make a Kingdom impact while also transforming our own lives.

In 2024, Genesis played a pivotal role in answering the call for Brandon and Katie Hutchens to become full-time missionaries in the Dominican Republic. After sensing God’s clear direction during a Genesis exploratory trip earlier in the year, they are now serving full-time in the Dominican Republic.

It will allow us to provide essential food staples like rice and beans, ensuring that families facing tough times can put food on the table when we otherwise wouldn't have the means.”
