Announcing Stewardship Ministry Fall Appeal 2019 - Be Invested!
The theme of the six-week Stewardship Ministry Fall Appeal 2019, Be Invested! which begins on Sunday, October 6 and continues until Sunday, November 24, includes three Ministry Initiatives, lifted up by Pastor Rick and the Church Council on behalf of the congregation, that include:
Enhancing Our Missional Giving is an effort to educate the church congregation about the many ways Trinity gives to missional giving within our church, Synod and in the worldwide community. The goal here is to invite the congregation to gradually increase total missional giving during future years to 10% of total giving by the Trinity congregation to the church budget.
Building Relationships will involve engaging our people in a discernment process that will result in a plan that will strengthen the relationships within Trinity Lutheran Church, the Church Campus on Stuart Street (three churches, one faith community) and the surrounding neighborhood.
During the next six weeks, you will hear even more about these exciting ministry plans for 2020 through monthly Tidings newsletter articles, worship talks and videos, weekly e-News updates, church Facebook page and web site, and Adult Forum classes. Along the way, you will be invited to consider increasing your giving during the coming year to enhance our combined missional giving as mentioned above.
On Commitment Sunday, November 10th, we will each present our commitment or Statement of Intent 2020 during the worship service. You may also mail in your Statement of Intent to the church office or turn it in to the office at a later date.
Thank all of you for your faithful giving of your time, talents, gifts, service and witness to the church, and for being part of the congregation here at Trinity!
