Dear First Congregational Church,
There is good news to share! You may be aware that meeting our stewardship goal for 2025 includes $50,000 in one-time gifts. To help meet this goal, a member of our church has offered a $25,000 gift to challenge us to rise up together and match the amount with another $25,000. A one-time gift is a financial gift in addition to your annual pledge and it is only for 2025. We invite you to join us in this endeavor. You can pay a one-time gift all at once, or over the course of the year. Both the online pledge form and the pledge card have a spot to indicate a one-time gift amount. Every single gift helps move us toward our goal - no gift is too small or too big!
This weekend is Consecration Sunday when we give thanks and bless our financial gifts to the church for 2025. Please join us in for worship at 8:30 a.m. or 10:30 a.m. Don’t forget to bring your pledge card to church this Sunday, January 26, or pledge online by Sunday. If you have already made your pledge, we thank you!
Our gratitude is deep and wide. In our open and welcoming village, our voices are louder, our hearts are lifted, and our hope is sustained. Thank you for supporting the church we love and the life we share as we offer God our thanks and praise.
