Commitment Sunday

May 4 is our “Commitment Sunday” for our building fund campaign. That is when each of us will pledge our personal three-year commitment to financially support building a new Fellowship and Welcoming Center for our ministry.

As you think about your own financial commitment to this campaign, we invite you into a process of prayer and discernment, asking how Spirit is calling you to be a channel for helping us fulfill this fellowship vision.

Step 1: REFLECTION. In a spirit of gratitude, reflect on what this ministry means to you. Read through the brochure to understand all the reasons we are doing this campaign, and how this fellowship center might positively impact you, your loved ones and generations to come. To access the information on our website, scan the QR code at the right.

Step 2: VISUALIZATION. During this process — and until that building is up and finished — I ask that everyone spend time visualizing the fulfillment of this project, and giving thanks for the fact that we are coming together as a community to put our principles of manifestation into practice.

Step 3: PRAYERFUL DISCERNMENT. Take this decision into your prayer time to discern what commitment Spirit is guiding you to make. We are asking everyone to contribute to this campaign, and to consider pledging 3% of their income over the next three years. But how much you give is a personal decision that depends on your own life situation and guidance. It may be higher than that; it may be a bit lower. Every gift, regardless of size, will be an important contribution to the campaign.

Step 4: COMMITMENT. Fill out the pledge card with the amount you plan to give over the next three years and either mail it back to the church or drop it into the collection basket on or before Commitment Sunday, May 4. (If you haven’t received a packet with a pledge card, you can pick one up at our Reception Desk or at the Campaign Table in the Courtyard on Sunday mornings.)

Thank you so much in advance for your generosity. We appreciate every prayer and contribution!
