As we enter this season of Stewardship, we invite you to reflect on your personal journey to Trinity and the vital role you play in our community. This year, our stewardship theme, WHY TRINITY, encourages us to look back with gratitude, embrace the present with purpose, and envision a future filled with promise. Guided by Ephesians 4:15, we are reminded to “grow in every way into Christ, who is our head.” Together, we are building up the body of Christ as we gather in love, grow in faith, give back in joyful service, and invite all to join us!
Below are three very important resources we ask you to consider prayerfully and intentionally:
1. 2025 STEWARDSHIP COMMITMENT CARD.
This year, you have the opportunity to direct your gifts to three key areas:
- GENERAL MINISTRIES. Your giving to General Ministries supports the daily operations and ministries of the church, including all ministry programs, supplies, and staff salaries. 10% of all donations go to support local, national, and international missions.
- BUILDING/MAINTENANCE FUND. Your giving to the Building/Maintenance Fund supports the 2018 loan payments for HVAC and roof repairs (which will be paid off in December 2025), property insurance, and preventative, replacement and repair maintenance needs.
- RESTORATION PROJECT. Your giving to the Restoration Project supports the current efforts to restore and upgrade the exterior limestone and brick, stained glass windows, children’s wing, new welcome entrance, and full campus landscaping.
2. “STEP UP YOUR GIVING” CHARTS.
Financial Giving is an act of worship and a spiritual discipline that requires prayerful and intentional consideration and choice. As such, financial giving should grow as we mature in our faith. Please use these charts to assist your household in assessing where you are in your giving, and most importantly, where God is calling you to be. Do you need to take the First Step in giving? Grow? Stretch? Tithe for the first time? Or are you ready to step into Extravagant Giving?
3. RESTORATION PROJECT UPDATE.
As of September 2024, thanks to your generous gifts, Trinity has raised over $340,000 in support of this $2 million project to restore and upgrade the exterior limestone and brick, stained glass windows, children’s wing, new welcome entrance, and full campus landscaping. THANK YOU for your abundant generosity and commitment to secure, strengthen, and expand Trinity's HOME for current and future generations!

We will conclude our stewardship season on SUNDAY, OCTOBER 27 with COMMITMENT SUNDAY, where we will each bring our 2025 Commitment Cards to the altar as a tangible expression of our commitment to the work God is doing through Trinity. This moment of dedication will be an opportunity for us to offer our gifts and trust in God’s continued guidance for our church’s future.
We are deeply thankful for your continued generosity and commitment to Trinity!
Every gift, no matter the size, contributes to our vision.
As we enter this season, may God bless you and your household abundantly, and may we continue to share his grace with those around us.
