The 2024 Canvass has begun, and we want to connect with you. Your pledge is what keeps our church going, and allows us to create spaces and programs with real meaning. About 87% of our revenue (which is needed to sustain our programs and staffing) comes from what we collect during the annual pledge drive. As important as your pledge is to us, we also value your thoughts and reflections. We have scheduled several opportunities to participate in small groups to discuss your thoughts on meaning, connection, and participation in the church. We call these our canvass conversations, and they are limited to about 8 people. This is a great way to share your ideas with the members of church council. We want to hear from you.
Please sign up for one of these important canvass conversations using the link below:
If you can’t attend one of our canvass conversations, you can make your pledge online. Our goal this year is to to increase our pledge total to $254,000, an increase of about a 5.5% from last year. If we meet our pledge goal, we will finally be back to our pre-COVID pandemic pledge levels. The increase will also allow us to give our paid employees a raise that mirrors the Cost-of-Living-Adjustment, something we have struggled to do in the last few years.
Every pledge counts – please give today!
As always, if you would like to have a one-on-one conversation with a member of the stewardship committee, please email the church office. A committee member will reach out to you and set up a time to talk.
Thank you for helping us create meaning, connection, and participation – now and in the future!
