2019
Help us meet our current financial goals so we can continue to grow in our faith through generous giving.
This year, we have seen ministry take shape in so many exciting ways. Our building is being utilized by more groups, our outreach ministries continue to reach new families in our communities, we have offered new adult classes and expanded our Sunday School classes for the Fall, we have offered great opportunities for people to grow in community, and we continue to engage more people in our worship (both in person and online). This year, our Leadership Board created new mission, vision and value statements that express who we are and who we hope to be. These will help guide us in living into God’s call for Burke Church in 2025. In order to do all that we believe God is calling us to, we need your help! We invite you to read the enclosed letter and consider the request we have made for you to step up your estimate of giving next year. If we all commit to this, we can meet the needs of the church (and maybe more)! May we be in a discerning space as we move through this season together.
Beacons of Hope!
Each year, we make a brochure introducing our theme and goals for the year. You can download a printable version of this year's brochure HERE! You will also receive a copy in the mail.
A Giving Exercise!
The amount mentioned in the Bible as the portion of wealth we should return to God is 10%. Using this worksheet, we invite you to calculate 10% of your household's income. You may not be able to give this amount currently, but we ask that you pray about the possibility of raising the amount of giving by a percentage over last year.
