Will My Pledge Make a Difference?

Our Mission Trip to Mexico through Habitat for Humanity was a life changing trip for those who participated.Some people may think their pledge won't make a difference because they just can't give "enough." But that is not true. Every pledge is important.

Think about it. If your family puts five dollars in the alms basin every Sunday, you are already giving over $250 a year.

While all gifts are welcomed and appreciated, if your family pledged $250 for the year, the church could depend on those funds and plan accordingly.

What could the church do with just $250?

You'd be amazed: that amount would buy supplies for the Nursery for a year. Or it would allow the Community Outreach Fund to assist FIVE families.

What would it take to double that pledge to $500 a year? That may seem like a stretch to some people, but think of it this way: if your family gave up one fast food dinner a month or you gave up two Starbucks drinks a week for a year, that would be $250 or more. That $500 pledge would about pay for the annual Sunday School curriculum for one children's class.

So please don't think that your pledge doesn't matter, because it does.
