Summer Stewardship Letter 2013
05-29-2013
While vacations are enjoyed by so many of our church family, and rightfully so I might add, the ministries of the church continue to move forward as lives are changed, marriages healed, and God is glorified through it all.
Stewardship of the resources God places in our hands extends so much further than even finances as prayers are also needed for our various ministries, including the general overall health of our church body.

Stewardship Letter to Summer Attendees to be Faithful in Giving Year Round
04-11-2013
In the past, you have been generous in your giving to the work of the church here in our community, and for that, we are grateful and appreciative. However, we are requesting that you would consider a special faith gift at this time, as well as some measure of monthly support even when you are not in the area.
I realize there are plenty of needs "out there", yet I know this church and it's mission are in your heart because you have given previously. If you're like me, you give to needs and projects that minister to you personally and are having a positive impact on people.

Letter of Appeal for Team Members to Honor Team Leader w/Gift
02-21-2013
This has been (and will continue to be) a lot of work for all of us, yet I'm reminded of the old saying "many hands make light work". Well, to take that a step further, especially as it applies to the Gospel, we can also say that "many hands make LIGHT work" as in the Light of the Gospel! Just think... God has the power to do the work by Himself, but He chose willing vessels such as us to work alongside Him.

Encouragement to Put God First in Life - God Will Provide
02-12-2013
Dear
In a world of mixed up priorities, it is so important to make frequent "trips" to the Word of God so that we can once again be reminded of the vital importance of allowing God first place in our lives.
When we study Matthew Chapter 6, we see that the Lord was talking about material needs which they had then, and we have now. Needs for things such as food and clothing, and of course there are other needs as well such as shelter and love, and more, yet the principle of Matthew 6 is to show that God is a providing God.
