Three of the Sundays this month will be a time of learning more about the story and the ministries behind our church budget. So often when we look at a budget it is just a bunch of numbers, but this month we will see all the ways we stretch our giving to provide so many ministries in and beyond our congregation.
Each member has been sent a pledge card and we hope you will take time this month to consider your pledge toward our 2026 budget. True giving comes from the heart and during this time we will share with each other the reasons we give and why it matters.
November 9: Faithful
It is a gift to have “Harbor People” in your life who are a safe place on both the sunny and the stormy days. Many of us give because we matter to each other, and our giving is an expression of our conviction that we belong to each other and of our faithfulness to God.
Diane Holt, Jim Thompson, Jodi Capitola-Duran share in the service
November 16: Hopeful
This congregation is tenacious, resilient! The ability to endure and do so with a grateful heart, grows out of a hopeful approach to life’s difficulties. Our gifts of love flow from a desire to invest in those yet to come and that they may find the kind of spiritual home we have known.
Marilyn Fahey, Lita Kurth, and Jim Thompson will share in the service
November 23: Loving
Love is the Source of all giving, and this Sunday goes back to the Source, as we step into the final week of our pledging period. For this Commitment Sunday Rev. Steven Monhollen and Jeanne Farrington will gift us with their reflections and presence.
Lorraine Glick, Deb St. Julien and Linda Lappin will share in the service
