Giving is a part of the walk of faith. It is one part of our life as stewards of God’s gifts- of our time, talent, treasure, resources, passions, questions, ideas, vocations, and stories.
We give out of our deep gratitude and joy for all that God has done and continues to do for us. As Christians we believe that we are called to share that which God has entrusted to us for the sake of God’s work in the world.
