2025 Annual Giving Campaign

 As we launch our 2025 Annual Giving Campaign, we celebrate the countless ways generosity has shaped our congregation. Time and again, your gifts of time, talent, and resources have enabled us to grow in faith, serve our neighbors, and respond to God’s call. This same spirit of generosity now equips us for the future, empowering our ministry to thrive, adapt, and reach new horizons. Together, let’s embrace this opportunity to give, trusting that God’s abundant provision will continue to guide and bless us.

HERE ARE SOME NUMBERS REFLECTING OUR GENEROUS SPIRIT…

98       households made a commitment to support our mission and ministry in 2024.

30       additional households have made financial gifts so far this year.

$470,000       total gifts & offerings received during the 2023-24 fiscal year (ending 6/30/24).

$80,000       additional gifts & offerings given to support ministry partners & dedicated funds.

Thank you!  These investments into our mission have made it possible for us to accomplish some truly amazing things over the past twelve months.  We are so grateful for the continued generosity that we receive, whether in the offering plate, sent into the office, or transferred electronically through our digital giving platform.

AS WE LOOK FORWARD TO 2025, WE HAVE SET TWO SIMPLE GOALS…

110       member households make a commitment to support our mission in 2025 by filling out and completing the enclosed commitment card or creating a recurring electronic gift.  If you have not done so in the past, this is the perfect chance to help us meet this goal.

5%       increase in giving to support the inflationary increases we are experiencing and to help us respond to the exciting opportunities emerging from our campus planning process.  If you can give more, you’ll help offset those who may not be able to make an increase at this time.

Take a moment to pray the “Discernment Prayer” found below.  Imagine what might be possible, as together, we embrace this Generous Spirit that God has placed within us.  Then, either bring a completed Commitment Card with you to worship on Sunday, Nov. 24, send it into the office as soon as you can, or make your annual commitment online by clicking on the link on this page completing the form below.

Thank you!

-Deb Cordes, Congregation President; Arjun Sethi, Congregation Treasurer; Pastor Peter Christ

PRAYER OF DISCERNMENT

God of Generosity, you have filled our lives with abundant blessings and second chances. As we consider our commitment to your church, open our hearts to trust in your provision. May we respond with a generous spirit, knowing that every gift—no matter the size—can be used to make your vision real. May our giving reflect your love and our shared calling to build the church and love the world. We give thanks for the opportunity to join in this ministry of hope and transformation. Amen.
