"Now to him who by the power at work within us is able to accomplish abundantly far more than all we can ask or imagine, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, for ever and ever. Amen."
Ephesians 3:20-21
In Scripture, we see a constant pattern: ordinary people bringing their gifts to God, and God doing something extraordinary with them. In giving our gifts to God, we recognize that we are finite, but God is infinite. Through God’s love, we can do infinitely more than we could ever do on our own.
This year, as you consider your pledge, remember the ways you have seen God move through the offerings we bring. Each gift is a step of faith. If we all fully commit ourselves and what we have to God, we can know that God will provide more than enough to meet the needs in us and around us.
As you consider your pledge for the following year, we hope that you will commit yourself to that vision. We are made one by working together in faith, and it is only by that commitment that this body can make an impact on this world.
NOTE: In an effort to better align our ministry and our mission, funding for missions will no longer be raised by a separate campaign, but will instead become a tithe from our General Ministries budget. If you have given separately to our Missions fund in the past, will you prayerfully consider combining both gifts into one this year?

Jesus calls us to welcome the stranger and care for those in need. Our Afghan brothers and sisters are arriving with no material possessions.
