2026 Stewardship Campaign

Next Sunday, October 5, we'll begin our parish stewardship campaign, guided this year by the well-loved exhortation of the prophet Micah: “Do justice. Love mercy. Walk humbly.”

The vestry was drawn to this familiar passage because again and again we discover in our midst the Spirit leading us to stretch our hearts and minds and resources toward the peace of God that inseparable from God’s justice and redemption. This is, at its heart, our Christian vocation: to love God and to seek and serve Christ in the poor, the sick, the hungry, the imprisoned, the sorrowful. As we step into the good works God has prepared for us ahead, we are invited to renew our shared commitment to love God and our neighbors as ourselves, praying for the kingdom of God to transform our lives both personally and as one people, knit together in the grace of Christ.

Our campaign will extend through October, culminating on All Saints’ Sunday, November 1, with our pledge ingathering. To mark the occasion, we will hold for our annual parish fish fry during coffee hour, celebrating God’s abundance and the bonds of our parish family.

Stewardship packets will be available for pickup in the back of the church beginning next Sunday, October 5. If you are unable to pick up your packet, please contact Fr. Peter Helman, and a packet will be mailed to you.

We are deeply grateful for your generosity! As we prayerfully consider how God is calling us to invest in the mission entrusted to us, let us share in Christ’s work of changing lives and our city, and to strengthen our common life in ways that will bear fruit for generations to come.
