We believe
that as members of the Reinbeck United Methodist Church, our
promise to give gifts is a
promise to connect to God's generosity by caring
for all God has given us and sharing a portion of that with others.
|
We
lead
by being great stewards, disciples in action who reflect God's
presence, holiness and love by the way we live every day.
|
|
|
"Stewardship
is
whatever we do, by the way that we live, with all that God has
entrusted to us. Surely these sacred spaces are some of the gifts God
has given us. |
God is generous. Isn't that enough of a reason to be
generous people?

Helping
people
connect
to GOD'S GENEROSITY.

- "WHERE HAVE YOU SEEN GOD THIS
WEEK?" Is the question we keep asking each other. That is a great
way yo observe God's generosity.
- In addition to our basic
budget, we are proud to
support the general mission of the United Methodist church by paying
100% of our apportionments.

portable air conditioning units they would be put to use immediately.
