Like good stewards of the manifold grace of God,
serve one another with whatever gift each of you has received.
1 Peter 4:10

Dear Faithful Ones,

As we approach the season of giving, we reflect on Commitment Sunday and the season of harvest and Thanksgiving. We all have something to be thankful for and we truly are grateful for all of the members of the community of St. Paul’s. The love and support of this community sustains us all.

As we move to maintain connection and outreach, we are called upon to give back to this community our time, talent and treasure. As we approach this upcoming church year, we ask that you consider making a 5% increase in your giving. If everyone increased their giving by that amount, we can achieve our goal of $300,000 for non-designated congregational contributions. To help this congregation continue the mission of the church and explore new and innovative ways of outreach and worship, we rely on your donations.

This year, as in past years, we ask you to submit your 2025 Plan for Giving electronically and fill out the online form. You can also print the form, or complete the enclosed card and mail or bring it to St. Paul’s. Please return your form by Commitment Sunday, November 17.

We understand that not everyone can give monetarily and your time and talents are always appreciated. If you have already submitted a 2024-2025 Time and Talent Form, thank you for that. If you have not, please complete the updated 2025 form online, or fill out the enclosed form and mail it, or bring it to St. Paul’s on Commitment Sunday, November 17.

St. Paul’s is a community of love and support to members, neighbors and friends. Each one of us is a valued member of this community by the grace of God.

Peace and blessings,

The Stewardship Committee
