KINGDOM
BUILDERS
2021/2022
Jesus Christ said while on earth, “I will build my church and the gates
of hell will not prevail” (Matthew 16:18). Kingdom Builders is our way
of leading this commission through a faithful community, passionate
about generosity.
This community, open to all, is built of individuals and families that
prayerfully commit to give, over and above their tithes, to global
missions, community outreach, and local church expansion.
The Bible shows us that Jesus gave all He had to reach the lost, and
that there is no greater love than this. This year, now more than ever
we are committed to doing our part in bringing the message of hope
and salvation to the rest of the world. Everything we do today is about
building His Church. Nothing can stand in His way and wherever the
Church is needed most, Kingdom Builders is going to be there.
Now more than ever, we give so that all may hear.

Global Missions
Through Kingdom Builders, we support key missions projects
such as providing Bibles, vehicles and humanitarian aid,
church planting, and pastoral development. Everyone, in
every nation, deserves a chance to hear the gospel.
Local Outreach
Kingdom Builders is committed to building up our local
communities through intentional outreach and supporting
local community efforts and organizations. Through
ministries, such as Love the Block and School Outreach, we
meet the physical needs of our neighborhood while sharing
the life changing gospel of Jesus Christ.
Future Church Expansion
Kingdom Builders is committed to funding the growth of the
church locally through expanding our own campuses and
building spaces that increase our ability to fulfill the Great
Commission. We do not do this for comfort, fancy buildings,
or praise, but for the purpose of making a space for those not
yet here to personally know our loving, Heavenly Father.

Love The Block
Love The Block is the heart of this church. We desire for all people to encounter the freedom & power
of a new life in Jesus Christ and being active in our city is such a huge part of how we reach the lost!
In the midst of the uncertainty of 2020, we decided to be more generous than any other year previously!
In August of 2020, we went into a neighborhood down the street from our church that had a great
need. We began to go out every week, handing out household items, food, activities for kids, pizza,
paying bills, and praying for all of those that we encountered. We have seen God move in BIG ways
through this ministry.
Currently, this ministry ministers to over 150 homes in our surrounding neighborhood, meeting
physical needs, praying over families, and sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ.

PLAN
VISION
DREAM
God has given a Great Commission to His
church, and we believe He is providing great
opportunity for Banner Church to live out that
mission here in Arizona and around the world.
By God’s abundant grace and blessings, and
through the sacrifice of many, we will be able
to financially support organizations around the
world as they expand the Kingdom of God, share
the love of Jesus while meeting the needs of our
local community, and invest into building the
future church here in Scottsdale
Now is the time to step in to giving, step up into
generosity, and step out in faith.
There is supernatural power when everyone is
involved.
Love The Block
LTB ministers to over 150 homes
every week, providing much
needed items for families, food,
community support, and prayer.
12How do I get involved?
1. Plan
First, make a plan to give. When you have plans and
are diligent, it leads to plenty (Proverbs 21:5). God is
excited when you have a plan! Whatever the amount
is—have the plan in place, work the plan and be
obedient with it. Start there.
2. Vision
Next, ask God to give you a vision for what He could
do through you with His help. This is beyond what you
can do in your natural income. This requires you to
take a step of faith. Additionally, Habakkuk 2:2 tells us
to write that vision down and pray about it! God will
supply all your needs according to His riches in Christ
Jesus (Philippians 4:19). Stepping out in faith pleases
God. When you look at what He has in His hands, it
goes to another level!
3. Dream
Lastly, what would be a dream amount you could give?
Hold on to it. This number is only between you and
God. Watch as each step of faith you take, God moves
you closer to that dream. God can do exceedingly
abundantly more than all we can ask for or imagine
(Ephesians 3:20).
While many people will be giving as Kingdom Builders
this year, always remember that every gift matters to
God. It’s not the size of the gift, but the obedience to
God’s voice that matters most. Now more than ever,
make a plan to give, ask God for a vision in your
generosity, and hold on to the dream of what God will Live Dead
do as you step out in faith! Planting churches among
unreached or inaccessible people
We are blessed to be a blessing groups around the world.
