Dear Friends in Christ |
|
Message from the Stewardship CommitteeSummer, the season of sunny days (yes, there will be sunny days) and family vacations, has arrived. As we enjoy the lovely weather of the coming months, let us also rejoice that the love of Jesus Christ is alive in his children. The Lord has touched your heart and compelled you to give to St. Paul’s and you have answered the call. We are writing to take a moment and let you know how much your offerings have been appreciated. Because of the tithing and offerings from members such as yourself we are able to continue serving the community, sharing the charity of Christ and spreading the gospel. Gifts like yours allow us to maintain the church as a proper place of worship. Your giving also helps us to expand our services to better accommodate the needs of our growing congregation. You can be sure that what you give is essential to the health and growth of our church. Your family at St. Paul’s thanks you for your generosity. We pray that you continue sharing, not only with your church, but with all those around you in need of the blessings of mercy of Jesus Christ. Sue Hartmann, Diane Martenco, Cindy Petruzzi, May Ertle, Debbie Giovannoli |
