Each of you must give as you have made up your mind, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance, so that by always having enough of everything, you may share abundantly in every good work.

2 Corinthians 9:7-8

You are part of the plan. 
The North Shore Congregational Church Stewardship Board oversees Stewardship Month each Fall. This effort helps to inspire and remind the members of this church to consider how much we have been blessed, focus on what we have been given, and how we can put it to work for God.

After receiving a personal guide that assists in considering the level of giving, each member is asked to return an Estimate of Giving by the end of the year. This allows the Church Board to prepare a budget for the next year.

This is God’s plan. The offerings from members make possible our worship services and all the ministries of the church. They provide for the maintenance and care of God’s house; spread the good news of God’s love and forgiveness; teach the principles and love of our Savior to our youth; and provide fellowship and inspiration to all who attend or visit our church. In short, through the work of our church, you bring hope and love into your life and give love and hope to others.

Your time and talent is integral. Giving to the church is not just monetary. The members of this church have many talents and other gifts to provide, and the Stewardship Board encourages everyone to seek out and consider opportunities to serve the church with their time and talents.
