Sunday Kick-Off of Autumn Every-Member Canvas

Well, we kicked off today. My thanks to everyone who picked up their envelopes. And a huge thanks to those who have already turned in your pledge cards. We are well on the way to success; thank you.

As I mentioned during the services today, I encourage you to think about two things: what is stewardship & what role does it play in your life... and the idea of proportional giving.

As you know, stewardship is all about taking care of those things which have been entrusted to our care: our treasure, our talent, and our time. Our campaign this fall is about how we each take care of our treasure and what do we give back to the Almighty from which all things have come. Each of us has been given much; what are willing to turn back for the work of the Church and the Lord?

While we certainly want to strive for tithing, here at Trinity we recognize the idea of proportional giving: giving back some set proportion of our treasure. We must proactively and consciously decided what proportion we are giving back; once we know that proportion, we can work to increase it yearly.

Please, fellow Trinitarians, prayerfully consider your stewardship effort this fall. If you have any questions about our campaign, please get in touch with me.
