Made for More - Purpose

…for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.

- Philippians 2:13

From the very beginning, Scripture teaches that we were created with intention—made in God’s image (Genesis 1:26–28) and formed for His glory (Isaiah 43:7). Our time, talents, and resources are not accidents but gifts entrusted to us for God’s mission, and stewardship is not simply about meeting the church’s needs but about living into who God has created us to be. This September, as we begin our annual stewardship campaign, we will look ahead to the coming year and seek the Lord’s guidance for ministry and mission. It is a time to prayerfully consider both our financial gifts—pledging what we can give to support the church’s mission—and our service, whether through new opportunities or by remaining faithful where we are already at work. When we align our lives with God’s purpose, even the smallest act of generosity or service becomes part of His renewing work in the world.

Blessings,
