Stewardship 2026

And Mary said, “My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior…” Luke 1:46-47, NRSV

Dear Friends,

Our Stewardship campaign is a chance to reflect on the many ways that we are connected to each other. Our theme this year focuses on the stories we tell and the ways we are called to share our words, our actions, our love, and our joy with the world. This year, with all that has been going on in the news, in our homes, schools and workplaces, and ever-shifting economic forecasts, the one constant has been the connections we have formed here at St. Paul’s.

Our stories bring us together. Just amongst us, we tell out the story of Earth Care at St. Paul’s, the inclu-sion of both young and old in our worship and community life, events like the Christmas Fair, groups like Holy Stitchers, and the many ways St. Paul’s lives out a commitment to justice in our community and beyond. Every person at St. Paul’s has similar stories to tell, reasons why St. Paul’s leads their spirit to rejoice. During this year’s Stewardship Campaign, we ask you to tell out your story as your soul magnifies the Lord with us at St. Paul’s.

With this letter, we are sending campaign materials for you to use in your discernment for how you will share your abundance with us and with our neighbors. Each hour spent volunteering, each good idea that you have, each dollar that you donate is transformed through prayer and grace into ministry and mission. We could not be an example of love and compassion in our community without your many and various gifts. Please return your pledge cards before the start of worship on November 2nd so that we may include them in our in-gathering and bless them.

Tell out my soul! The Greatness of the Lord!
