Giving

“I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me."
Matthew 25:35-40

 We give because we follow in the footsteps of Jesus and believe his words.

Pledge Sunday Update

Pledge Sunday, February 22nd, was the kickoff for our Building On Faith Campaign. Your tremendous support on that day helped us achieve a monumental goal - we passed the halfway point of our goal! Please continue to submit your pledges in the Sunday collections. March 23rd is the last day to submit a pledge.

If you regularly give with a Sunday envelope, you can estimate your giving and still submit a pledge form. Doing that helps us to estimate what our income will be during the year.

Please take another look at our Building on Faith brochure for a reminder of how important your support is.
