Unexpected Ways of Giving
Giving back to the Lord in new and unexpected ways is the focus of this year’s stewardship campaign which will launch Sunday, October 30, 2011. Stewardship Sundays will continue through November 20 at which time pledges will be dedicated and a thank-you celebration will take place between Sunday worship services.
Our time, our talents, and our material possessions constitute just some of the treasures we have been given by our very generous God. Sharing these gifts involves being with God in prayer and worship, using our gifts to help build God’s Kingdom among our family and friends, our workplace, and our communities and Church. It means becoming ministers of the Gospel in our communities and Church in new and perhaps unexpected ways (balloons in church)! In choosing Stewardship-Unexpected Ways of Giving as this year’s stewardship theme, we hope you will reflect upon our giftedness; all that we have which constitutes our treasure: our families, friends, time, talents, skills, material possessions, and finances and give back in new and unexpected ways. Stewardship is a way of thanking God for all our blessings by returning to God a portion of the many gifts we have been given. “As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.” (1 Peter 4:10).
We invite you to contact the Christ Presbyterian Church office by calling (623) 882-0721 to request a pledge and time/talent card or with any questions.
Give in unexpected ways and make an unexpected difference.
