Our annual stewardship campaign is coming to a close.
Have you made your pledge of financial or time resources yet? If not, it’s definitely not too late.
As we’ve explored the necessity of this year’s theme, “Come Together,” we’ve heard from a number of our members and friends about how and why giving of time, talent and resources is important to them:
Jeff talked about the church’s vital role in providing safety and hope through the past few years as the world was turned upside down.
Ed and Pat talked about the impact of past members’ commitment to Vine Street on the life of the church and community today.
Gayle talked about feeling welcomed by the members of Vine Street, and loved and cared for.
Liam and Gia talked about their leadership roles in the church, and how Vine Street is such a loving and supporting community.
Our younger children talked about (and sang about) how the church leads them to know they are loved by God, and by the members of the church.
Doug talked about the ways in which our time commitments to the church are vital to sustaining the Spirit, in addition to the ways our financial gifts support our continued commitment to following the teachings of Jesus.
Lydia and Dair reminded us of the many big and small loves that make up our church at Vine Street, and how important each is to the wholeness of our community.
And Abi wrote Come Together, a special hymn we will sing for the first time in worship on Sunday, April 16.
Love, care, support, impact, guidance, commitment and wholeness. These common themes ring throughout and are a large part of what makes Vine Street a deeply special community.
Your financial gifts, and your gift of time, help ensure that this community continues to be a place that nurtures and supports believers of all ages as well as continuing to be a light in the darkness for our Nashville community at large.
