Finance

Throughout the Bible, God instructs each of us to be good stewards of our money; to act responsibly, protect, share, and give accordingly.  This is the role the Finance Ministry plays for our congregation.  We serve to insure that the financial intentions of the congregation are being met and that we're acting responsibly with the gifts and offerings given by ach of us.  There are many opportunities to serve in this important mission.  To learn more, or to join our ministry, please contact Phyllis Farris.

 

Stewardship

Our lives are gifts from God.  We are given everything in this life, ourselves, our time, and our possessions, all given because God loves us beyond our ability to comprehend.  Stewardship is about what we do with those gifts, and returning a portion of everything back to God.  Our ministry is about helping the children of God give back to God through time, talent, and treasure.  We encourage all to return to God first from those three categories of gifts.  To learn more or to join our ministry, please contact Daryl Faustini.

 

 

Evangelism
Our ministry reaches out and invites our neighbors and others to join us in worship and to a place at Christ's table.  We welcome visitors and encourage them to share the Bread of Life around our table of worship and fellowship.  We sponsor new members.  Our goal is to fulfill the Great Commandment given to us by Jesus, to go into the world and make disciples of all nations.  For more information or to join this ministry, contact Susanne Kohl-Parker.
