  1. Kingsway Lambton United Church Mission 2009 Stewardship Campaign

  2. - Rev. Hugh D. Reid For any Christian, mission and giving is not an obligation that is laid upon us but a sign of our freedom in Jesus Christ, an indication that we own our possessions and are not owned by them, that they serve us and not we them. When possessions divide us, devour our time, and deprive us of love, then they own us and diminish life.

  3. MISSION STATEMENT • LIVING IS GIVING • WE LIVE BEST AS WE GIVE OUR STRENGTHS, GIFTS AND SKILLS IN THE SERVICE OF GOD • WE ARE CALLED TO SERVE NOT SURVIVE • OUR GIVING MAKES A DIFFERENCE IN OUR FAMILIES, OUR WORK, OUR COMMUNITY, OUR WORLD AND OUR CHURCH

  4. PLEDGES • A pledge is an intent, not a guarantee • Provides communal sense of congregational commitment • Enables reliable church budgeting • Enables favourable bank credit terms • Can be apportioned between KLUC and United Church Mission and Services

  5. OPTIONS FOR REMITTANCE • Weekly Offering • Sunday and Seasonal envelopes • PAR (Pre-Authorized Remittance) • Funds automatically withdrawn from your bank account • Provides consistent monthly revenue, particularly over the summer period • Can be combined with envelope use • Currently about 25% of our congregation use PAR.
