Stewardship

One of the greatest gifts we have been given is the abundance of God’s mercy that shines over us and all of creation. Just like the sun rises over our beautiful Lake St. Clair, the light of Jesus Christ casts God’s glory over us, and it is our job to respond with wonder, joy, and generosity.

Because of God’s goodness, we seek to be generous givers to God and God’s work in the world. Not only does it allow us to do vital ministry in the world, but it also allows us to experience God’s abundance in our lives as we faithfully and sacrificially give.

At GPMC, financial giving has two important components: Giving and pledging. Giving is a part of our spiritual relationship with God. It is an expression of our stewardship of what God has given to each of us. At the heart of our giving is God’s generosity: loving us beyond measure, forgiving us beyond reason, blessing us beyond compare, and calling us into life, both abundant and eternal.

Pledging is a part of planning. It communicates your intentions about what you will give in the coming year, which allows the church to responsibly steward the gifts of our faithful and generous congregation. Our Session uses the pledges of the congregation to plan for the ministries and mission of the church. Pledges allow us to be caretakers and managers of the financial resources that provide for staffing, programming, support of our mission partners, and care of our buildings and grounds.
