MAKE AN ANNUAL PLEDGE
We encourage congregation members to make an annual pledge. Why make an annual pledge? From The Episcopal Church’s website: “A commitment to give one’s time, talents, and money as an expression of faith and a personal response to God’s generosity. Parish members are encouraged to make an annual stewardship pledge. This pledge represents their specific Christian commitment to “work, pray, and give for the spread of the kingdom of God” (BCP, p. 856) . . . A pledge is a statement of intent, not a legal obligation. It can be changed at any time.”
Pledge forms can be obtained from the church office. Pledges can be paid by cash, check, Automated Clearing House (ACH) payments (click HERE for the ACH form), or electronic bill pay directly from your bank account. Please contact church Treasurer Michael Hirt with questions.
