Annual Stewardship

JOIN US IN STEWARDSHIP

As a community, we are called to walk in love, give joyfully, and serve faithfully. Thank you for your generosity and for being part of this journey with us.

Who should PLEDGE?

We ask each household to make a pledge that is significant and sacrificial for them, as a faithful response to God’s generosity. Your pledge makes our shared mission possible.

 

WHat is a PLEDGE?

A pledge is a personal commitment to give your time, talents, and financial resources as an expression of faith and gratitude for God’s generosity. Each year, members are invited to make a stewardship pledge — a specific promise to “work, pray, and give for the spread of the kingdom of God” (BCP, p. 856). A pledge is not a contract — it is a statement of intent, and it can be adjusted at any time if your circumstances change. Your pledge is an annual commitment and it does not auto renew.

WHY PLEDGE?

Your pledge supports worship, formation, outreach, and community programs that sustain and grow our church family. It enables Good Shepherd to serve those in need, nurture faith, and deepen connections within our congregation and beyond. Every pledge — no matter the amount — is a faithful act of discipleship. Your commitment helps us plan for the coming year.

HOW to Pledge?

• MAIL YOUR PLEDGE CARD

In September of each year, you will receive a pledge package in the mail that includes a pledge form and return envelope. Your pledge does not auto renew, even if you have established automated payments.

 

The mailing address is:
