Precious Blood of Jesus Episcopal Church

Stewardship Campaign 2012

Estimate of Giving Form

During this season of thanksgiving, we ask that you thoughtfully and prayerfully consider the reasons you attend services at Precious Blood of Jesus Episcopal Church, and consider the many blessings God has bestowed on you and your loved ones. As a foundation for your prayer, we suggest you consider the question: “What portion of my income is God calling me to give?” We also suggest that those with children make this a family discussion – it is only through our own example of giving that are children are taught the importance of supporting God’s work on earth.
