Stewardship 2024
Beloved in Christ,
Our vision for St. John’s is a Community of Faith that practices and preserves the ancient Faith of Orthodox Christianity while at the same time inviting new members to join our family.
We are strengthening and growing our spiritual home together.
We strengthen our Home when we are committed to our Faith as a community and practice in all its aspects of worship, prayer, and discipline, as was handed down to us. We do this consistently, lovingly, and sacrificially. Our Church is made strong when we are all behind the vision of Christ, who wants us to be a tight knit community, to be one with Him and with one another, as the Father and the Son are one (John 17:20-23).
We are growing our Home when transformed by our Faith, we become ourselves witnesses of the Orthodox Faith wherever we live or work. We grow when our youth is nurtured by education and our example in Christ. We grow when we confidently open our arms wide to those who are committed to learning, adopting and the living and transforming Faith of the Orthodox Church, (Matthew 28:19). Regardless of ethnic, cultural or religious background
We can do all this only when you get involved. We need you in our ranks as a member, a steward of our community, and live the Church’s vision. We cannot be strong, and we cannot grow without your participation. We are in this all together and together with Christ (Ephesians 2:6).
We kindly invite all of you to consider your 2024 Stewardship Commitment prayerfully.
As a reminder, you can conveniently make a pledge our Realm system here, and don’t forget also to set up your payment plan here. Every year a new pledge needs to be set-up, it doesn’t automatically renew.
In Christ,
St. John’s Stewardship Committee
