“God Loves a Cheerful Giver”
2021 Stewardship Pledge Commitment to
St. John’s Episcopal Church, Concord
November 16, 2020
Dear Members and Friends of St. John’s Church,
As you may have heard, we have a new Rector, the Rev. Jill LaRoche-Wikel, M. Div.
Rev. Jill will begin her ministry with us as our new Rector on Friday January 15th, 2021 and her first Sunday with us will be January 17th. We look forward to this new chapter in the life and ministry of St. John’s Church in Glen Mills.
Our Stewardship Pledge Campaign for 2021 begins this November 16th, 2020. Your elected Vestry Members, Wardens, and Church Officers have been asked to make a Pledge for 2021. We ask that each of you thoughtfully and prayerfully consider what you will pledge of your Time, Talents, and Treasure to support the ministries of our Church in the coming year. We also encourage you to consider increasing your giving for 2021.
Pledging serves two purposes: first, making a pledge is a personal spiritual discipline and our way of giving back to God in thanksgiving; and second, pledges help the Vestry to responsibly plan to continue our ministry as a Christian community. So,
for a hard copy of the 2021 Pledge Form that you can print off at home. Please complete your pledge and snail-mail it to the church office.
Or, starting this year, you are also able to submit your pledge electronically via a Google Form.
to complete and return your pledge electronically.
It will help our budgeting process if you return your pledge by the Deadline, which is the 3rd Sunday in Advent, December 13th, 2020. Thank you.
Faithfully Yours in Christ, Your Vestry Leadership
The Rev. Daniel W Hinkle- Interim Rector Martha Pearlman, Rector’s Warden
Burt Blackburn, Treasurer Bill Calhoun Diane Carlin
Steve Carmichael Mary Gonzalez, Vestry Secretary Mary Pat Lynam
John Pachkowski Ted Stipa, Vestry Warden Gerry Tierney
