2010 FaithWalk Stewardship Campaign
Thank you for your generous and outstanding response to the 2010 FaithWalk Stewardship Campaign! Last week on Loyalty Sunday, hundreds of families and individuals, including our children and students, made a commitment to financially support Sugar Land Methodist in 2010 so that we can reach people for Christ, grow as disciples and serve those in need. It’s not too late for you to join them. Estimate of Giving cards are available in the pew backs, in the church office or on the website.
What Does it Mean to be Generous
In difficult times like these, giving is down, 401k’s are shrinking, the credit markets are still tight. Is generosity really practical? Why in the world should I be thinking about sharing a generosity message with others at a time like this? Consider:
- Christians have a unique opportunity to demonstrate generosity that will attract a watching world. It’s countercultural to give when everyone is scrambling to preserve.
- Churches and ministries need funding, and now is the time for generous people to step up and meet the challenge. This book is designed to open peoples’ hearts to the blessedness of generosity and provide practical steps to put this kind of life into practice.
- Difficult times like these often force us to examine how we have lived during the good times. This is a great opportunity to introduce people to the joy and freedom of the generous life, a joy that lasts whether markets are up or down.
- We are all called to be generous, even though all of us do not have the gift of giving.
