When we recognize that everything we hold is entrusted to us by God, our posture shifts: hands open not only in thanksgiving, but in readiness to serve.\u00a0 Community becomes the sacred space where stewardship breathes\u2014through shared meals, lifted burdens, and voices raised in pursuit of justice. These are not scattered gestures of goodwill; they are intentional acts of love, Spirit-led and deeply rooted in grace.<br \/>\nTo serve is to show up\u2014not merely with our resources, but with our presence, our story, our whole selves. This is holy work: tending to the needs of others with the awareness that, in doing so, we are tending to the very heart of God.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Join with us on Sunday, October 19 as we continue our stewardship study.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/strong><strong>We invite you to Come and See!
