Stewardship

2010 Offering Envelopes are available in the lobby. (There are many left and waiting for pick-up.)

We have all benefited from the legacy of those who came before us at First Church. Praise and thanks also to you for continuing the legacy of generous giving at First Church. We are truly blessed to be a part of a congregation that has so many talented, dedicated, and energetic volunteers. You make our worship, music, youth activities, education, and outreach programs vibrant and successful year after year, and your continued gifts of time & talent and financial support are needed to carry on and increase these traditions.

In addition to volunteering for and funding our many programs; much of the budget (along with your time & talent) is dedicated to the operation, maintenance, and upkeep of the church building and grounds. Maintaining and improving our wonderful house of worship requires continued resources and care.

We ask that you prayerfully consider KEEPING your pledge for the 2010 stewardship campaign. They can be sent in to the church offce or placed in the offering plate at any service.

Thank you, Bob Jacob and Mike Meyer, Stewardship Chairpersons.
