As we move further into this season of gratitude, reflecting on the miraculous good news of the Gospel, we are filled with hope
by the outpouring of your gifts - your expressions of generosity of the heart and spirit. They reflect a deep desire to embody God’s love and extend Christ’s light to others, especially at a time when the world so desperately needs it. Isaiah reminds us, “See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?” (43:19) God is indeed moving among us, calling us to something greater: to be Christ’s hands and feet, and to illuminate the lives of others with compassion, kindness, and action. The results of our generosity campaign so far reflect this faithful call. We still need $550,000 to meet our 2025 goal.
We are not simply meeting goals—we are participating in something sacred, a renewal of
spirit and purpose. This holiday season, let us continue to be the light of the world to our
neighbors, both near and far. Let us allow our generosity to flow from a place of love,
moving us toward new possibilities for ministry, mission, and care. Thank you for sharing
your gifts and for helping us witness the “new thing” that God is doing in our midst.
