Dear Church Family,
As we begin our stewardship season, we invite you to reflect on how your giving supports the ministry we share. Spiritual practice feeds the part of us oriented toward serenity, harmony, truth, compassion, gratitude, love, and joy—yet these are not always the words we use when we talk about money.
In the classic film, It’s a Wonderful Life, a crisis of money sparks wildly different reactions from the characters, holding up a mirror to our own relationship with finances. This year, we will reflect compassionately on our money stories, seeking deeper meaning, healing, and wholeness.
Through this three week Stewardship Campaign series, It’s a Wonder-FULL Life, we hope to offer a new outlook on what truly makes a wonderful life—one shaped by generosity, trust, and shared purpose. Your pledge, whatever its size, strengthens our mission and helps us continue serving with faith and hope.
We encourage everyone to consider giving a gift greater than last year’s. For some, that may mean pledging for the first time! Every pledge matters. Our entire annual budget depends on the generous commitments made by our congregation. When each of us gives in a way that is meaningful, we can reach—and even exceed—our goal.
You can submit your pledge in one of the following ways:
- Mail the enclosed Estimate of Giving card
- Visit www.christouranchorpc.org and click the “Pledge Now” button
- Email your pledge to: coa_office@christouranchorpc.org
Please remember: your pledge is not binding. You can update it at any time, for any reason. And as always, all pledges are kept strictly confidential.
We invite you to give thoughtfully and joyfully this year. Together, we can build a community rooted in compassion and generosity to lead a Wonder-FULL life!.
With gratitude and joy,
The COA Generosity Team
