WHY WE GIVE
God is generous and so he calls us to be as well. What we do with what God has given us shows the world where our hearts are at and helps proclaim the Gospel. We want to glorify God in every area of our lives, and that includes what we do with our finances.
PLEDGE FOR 2025

“I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who abide in me and I in them bear much fruit.” John 15:5
Just as we wait with anticipation for each season’s plants to flourish, we’re intentionally planning what we can accomplish together in the upcoming year. Thank you for all of your gifts and prayerful support—every gift of any size truly matters.
When we flourish as a church, the community flourishes. We’re a place where people experience healing and grace and know they matter to God and others. With your generosity, we can expand our…
- Children, Youth & Family programming.
- Our Community Mental Health Ministry.
- Opportunities for our aging population.
- Pastoral Care Ministry to help those in need.
- …and the excellent ministries that you are accustomed to.
Your giving to St. Andrew’s helps us flourish!
