CURATE'S CORNER New Seasons, New Commitments Hello, my friends.

My personal understanding and practice of stewardship […]

Welcome to the 2021 Annual Pledge Drive! Welcome to the 2021 Annual Pledge Drive – a time of intentional reflection and response to what it means to be a community of faith supporting the ministry we share.

Each of us is an invaluable part of this process – so welcome!

2021 Annual Pledge Drive! As we come to the close of this Annual Pledge Drive, now is the time for each of us to discern and to make a commitment, if we haven't already, to the financial support of our ministry. Over the years, many of us have found life-giving ways of being extensions of God's love through being members of this community. And we want everyone to be able to participate in supporting the ministry that we are gifted by God to share to help radically transform the world that we live in. One way of doing that is to make a pledge for the year ahead. Each of you is an important part of this faith community and together we create an open and inviting place of Belonging for anyone looking for a spiritual home. If you have not already offered your pledge, your "yes", your sign of support for who and how we strive to be in the world in the year to come, please consider doing that today!
