Thank you so much for giving to the mission of Hickory Grove!
Your gift is making it possible for us to continue to "bless NKY" and "build God's family."
Know this: every single cent you gave has made a global, eternal difference!

Each year, we commit to giving 10% of the prior year’s budget amount to financially support ministries all over the world. We were able to designate $135,295 in 2025 for the purpose of sharing the good news of Jesus Christ in Independence, Northern Kentucky, the commonwealth, the continent and around the globe. God used your generosity to make this happen:
  • Provide an Easter Egg Hunt for thousands of our neighbors in Independence, KY
  • Provide good, free, fun experiences for kids and their families at the annual Independence Day Festival
  • Providing funding for Fellowship of Christian Athletes which provides a gospel impact as far as Northern Kentucky University and as near as Simon Kenton High School.
  • Ministering to children and their families in inner city Covington through the Moore Activity Center
  • Providing sober housing for recovering addicts in Newport, KY through funding provided to Reset Ministries.
  • Helping pregnant mothers in crisis all over NKY by providing funding to The New Hope Center.
  • Feeding hungry kids through weekend take-home backpacks by providing funding and food to Regional School Programs (also known as “The Scorpion Center”)
  • Providing food and assistance to local families through your giving to our “Helping Hands” fund.
  • Providing financial assistance to local Hispanic-speaking churches and the first ever Arabic-speaking church in Kentucky through funding we give to the Northern Kentucky Baptist Association.
  • Providing foster care and crisis intervention for children and youth all over Kentucky, through funding provided to Sunrise Children’s Services.
  • Deploying disaster relief teams in communities ravaged by hurricanes, tornadoes and flooding through funding we give to the Kentucky Baptist Convention and the International Mission Board (IMB).
  • Planting new churches all across North America through funding we provide to the North American Mission Board (NAMB).
  • Fully funding missionaries in other countries so that they don’t have to raise their support and can focus on the work of spreading the gospel in new unreached places (IMB and NAMB).
And this just scratches the surface. And for the other 91% of our church budget that you funded, we were able to send record numbers of kids and youth to summer camp and to retreat. We were able to resource small groups, Bible studies, GriefShare support, marriage workshops, and fun events to reach kids, teens, adults, and seniors. We were able to staff this great ministry and upkeep our campus so that it will continue to be a light in NKY. We were able to see 50 individuals declare their faith through baptism and countless others begin faith journeys with Jesus.

This is OUR church family. Together, as we continue to give of our time, talent, and treasure… we will continue to see God do exceedingly more than we could ask or imagine (Ephesians 3:20-21). Let’s harness in for the great things He has in store for 2026.
"Bring all the tithes into the storehouse so there will be enough food in my Temple. If you do,” says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, “I will open the windows of heaven for you. I will pour out a blessing so great you won’t have enough room to take it in! Try it! Put me to the test!"
​-(Malachi 3:10, NLT)
