Give to the Church
The point is this: the one who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and the one who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. Each of you must give as you have made up your mind, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

——  Make an annual pledge
Pledging an amount to be given for the calendar year allows leaders to plan the ministries of the church. The money donated may be allocated to one of three funds. The General Fund supports the upkeep of our building, our programs, and our staff salaries. The Outreach Fund aids in uplifting community members outside the church by providing relief on local, national, and international levels. The Deacons’ Fund provides confidential emergency relief to folks connected to the congregation.

——  Serve
We invite you to explore the ministries of our congregation and notice where your passion lies. Fred Buechner offers that, “The place God calls you to is the place where your deep gladness and the world’s deep hunger meet.” Our faith is a lived faith, one that calls us into the church so that we can be more than we could be alone, and sends us out to serve in Jesus’ name.
