Wednesday night was a busy one at church. The evening began with a meeting of the Stewardship Committee. It was pretty exciting as we began fleshing out this year's campaign. The theme is "Fill My Cup Lord." We are going to be talking about the way that God meets our needs. He literally fills our cups with blessings when we most need them.
We are going to kick off the campaign on November 1st. We are asking everyone to bring in their favorite mugs for communion. That's our way of making it personal. It is our cup that he is filling. I'm going to be preaching on the text from John 4 where Jesus encounters the Samaritan woman at Jacob's well.
We also decided that Patricia Ohlund and Mary Brockway will be sharing their stories of how God supplied their needs in tough times. It will be part of our presentation. We will also be sending out some charts, our proposed budget and a narrative budget. We want to give everyone a chance to invest in our ministry.
We don't do everything right, but we try and we have a good time doing what we do. I love the fact that so many kids have grown up in our church family and we have hosted so many weddings. I am honored that our ministry has been there for so many families when a loved one has died. I think it is worth the investment so that we can insure it will remain strong well into the future.
Any way... Stay tuned. You will hear more as we move into November.
