Stewardship
Sunday
2020
“Growing by Giving”
While
a stewardship campaign may seem an odd place to be thinking about growing
spiritually, it is really the perfect place! As the scripture reminds us, where
our treasure is, there our hearts will be as well (Matthew 6:21), so if your treasure
is in God's kingdom, so will your heart be -- growing more and more like Jesus'
heart!
And
together, our hearts and our treasures can make God's kingdom come alive!
For
2020, the Session has decided to go heart first, putting our treasure into some
important areas of ministry, including our ministry with children, youth, and
families, and our online ministry through Facebook Live and YouTube Live!
We
want to be bold and brave and be kingdom people and have added to the budget so
that new things can happen in our midst. We are excited and faithful and ready
to see what God has in store for us as we grow by giving!
Would
you like to join us as we pray and give?
Please consider your part, and fill out a pledge/estimate
of giving card for your weekly/monthly offering!
Making a difference in Jesus’ name!
