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 $315,000 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. We understand that not everyone can give monetarily, and your time and talents are always appreciated.

This year, as in past years, we ask you to submit your 2026 Plan for Giving and 2026 Time and Talent Form electronically using the online forms below. Printed forms are also available at the church. Please return your forms by Commitment Sunday, October 12th.

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
