Letter to Members - [ Exhibit C ] 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 9:8 We are richly blessed by God. Our life is a gift, a blessing. As members of a community of faith. we share our life in many and various ways. We share God's blessing in our actions. The Board of Stewardship would like to offer the community of Grace Lutheran one way to experience and grow in this amazing blessing of giving and life. Beginning June 4th and continuing on the first Saturday and Sunday of each month, a "Blessing Bowl" will be available. This will be a large glass bowl filled with "blessings". As you leave the altar, following Holy Communion, you are invited to take a blessing. The blessings are pieces of colored paper. On them you will find ways to share with others. You will find suggestions for giving to others. Your blessing may be to introduce yourself to someone you don't know. Perhaps, the blessing will be to call a shut-in or to pray. Your blessing may be special words to think about or a wise quote. The Blessing Bowl provides opportunity for each of us to practice the stewardship of Christian living. Stewardship is about blessing and giving and life. Our prayer is that as you receive these blessings, God works in your life, growing your act of giving into blessing. |
