Stewardship Season

Annual Appeal for 2025

"Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality." Romans 12:9-13 

Why this Scripture? Romans 12:9-13 encourages the development of a Christ-centered community by emphasizing love in action, mutual honor, and enthusiastic service. It calls for a commitment to empathy and hospitality, urging members to support each other in times of joy and hardship. By fostering a spirit of unity and selflessness, this passage can help guide us towards whole-hearted community and allows us to celebrate the things SJC does well, while also calling us into our growing edges in the year ahead.
