On behalf of our church leadership, staff, and appointed clergy, Pastor Paul asks each church member or friend of Manchaca UMC to prayerfully consider a special gift to Manchaca UMC in this early summer season. Primarily speaking of financial gifts, there are also many gifts to be shared of time and talent.
Enhancing the ministries of Manchaca UMC is the goal. What do we mean by that phrase? Simply, we want to be the church that gives witness of our faith in Christ by spreading love in our church and community during this 150th year celebration season and for many seasons in our shared future.
We want to stretch our shared resources through a long hot summer. Your enhanced giving could provide for more students and families to participate in Vacation Bible School, repair the air conditioning unit for one of our large upstairs classrooms, or maintain ongoing utilities for a cool environment as others come to enjoy our ministries and facilities.
Enhanced giving may also be funding for sustained ministries into our future at Manchaca UMC. Legacy gifts given through retirement or estate planning often provide churches like us a foothold toward new mission opportunities. Special gifts given in memory of loved ones and dedicated for enhanced ministries might help us provide necessary staffing resources going forward.
There are many ways the financial blessings we know as a church family can be shared to the glory of God and in the ministry we share in Christ. You can be a partner in this work. We need you! Your gift makes a difference.
Thank you for your prayerful consideration of an enhanced ministry gift this month.
