In the season of Eastertide, it is appropriate for us to give thanks for our many blessings through the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is through Him that all things are made possible.
It is also incumbent upon us to look to the future and prepare the way for those who would join us in following Jesus daily in this place at The Presbyterian Church, Sewickley. Stewardship of our resources here for the future depends on everyone's contribution no matter how large or small, be it monetary or otherwise, for there are many ways to support the good works done here. Therefore we, the Stewardship Committee, wish to joyfully thank all of you for your pledges received in the 2008 campaign and all the personal time and service given by so many people.
In I Timothy 6:17-19 we read "Command those who are rich in this present world … to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life."
This years pledges have recently exceeded $1,130,000. The theme "Just Imagine What We Could Do…" is expressed through your generous commitment and support in the form of financial and volunteer service that sustains the Mission and the day-to-day Operations of our church home here at The Presbyterian Church, Sewickley. It pleases us and excites us to experience this joyful response from the congregation. |
