November marks our focus on Fremont’s GROW. GIVE. GO. Stewardship ministry program.
We are invited to GROW as disciples. Our mission is to create space for people to become life-long followers of Jesus. “Come, follow me,” Jesus said.
We are invited, and dare we say, commanded, to GIVE as the Lord has given to us. Consider these words from King David in I Chronicles 29:14: “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.”
Finally, we are also commanded to GO. “Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.” (Matthew 28:19). Though 2020 has felt like “STOP,” what if the Lord is preparing us for our future? These last few months have felt like, “Stop!” However, in God’s kingdom, what if it is a preparation for a new going?
On November 22nd, we’ll have the opportunity to commit to how we might GROW. GIVE. GO. in 2021.
