Bethany's Stewardship  2024

Dear Bethany Family,
Can you feel the joy in the air, it is bouncing off the walls. Fall is here and many of the programs that Bethany Church provides and supports have started up again.
Through the month of October, we talk about our “Commitment of Giving”, wanting to express gratitude for blessings we have received.
This year we want you to take a minute and think... Who am I?
Who am I in my faith…
Who am I in my church…
Who am I in my stewardship…

We want you to reflect on ourselves, reflect on all the blessings that Bethany provides to you, to so many families, to our community.
  • 1 Chronicles 29:12-14: “Wealth and honor come from You; You are the ruler of all things. In Your hands are strength and power to exalt and give strength to all. Now, our God, we give You thanks, and praise Your glorious name. But who am I, and who are my people, that we should be able to give as generously as this? Everything comes from You, and we have given You only what comes from your hand.”
Each quarter in the letters you receive we talk about finding that special feeling that being a part of the Bethany Family brings. This year we are talking about joy.
What joy does Bethany Church bring to you? How can you help spread that joy?
Christians are called to be good stewards of the resources God has entrusted to us – including our time, talents, and finances. In turn, Christians are to use his resources wisely and for his glory. When that happens, God promises to bless us with more (John 13:17).
Being a steward means being responsible for something that doesn't belong to you. As Christians we are responsible for managing the worldly riches God has generously provided.
God blesses his people with many resources, we are merely stewards of his resources and are responsible for using them wisely and for his glory.
Through actions, we can give thanks for all the blessings he constantly provides.
We are so blessed at Bethany that the resources and volunteers that have been provided thru our members stewardship.
As the Bethany Stewardship Team, we are asking you to join us in prayer over the next few weeks for the mission of our church, the financial budget to fulfill our mission and, most importantly, what is the spirt leading you to do regarding your personal financial commitment to Bethany.
Below is a button for you to download and print out a 2024 stewardship card. There are many ways to give, whether in person, through our online giving portal available through the home page www.bethanypresby.org or by mailing your contributions to the church. Your support of the mission of Bethany Church is appreciated.
Thank you for your prayers and for reflecting with us, for finding and spreading the joy God has given us and is to us.
Blessing,

Stewardship Team
