Stewardship Corner
When the Son of Man comes in glory, may we be among those who have fed the hungry, welcomed the stranger and clothed the naked. For Jesus tells us clearly that it is those who have demonstrated good stewardship by sharing their gifts with the less fortunate who will receive God’s blessing and inherit the kingdom.
Leave a Legacy We are called upon to do good. “To worship and serve in Jesus’ names.” We always need to remember that Jesus died for the world, but His saving mission goes on. We, too, Should plan that the good we have done in this life lives after us. One way is to make certain that a share of our worldly goods is left to charities, church, and the needy. Your financial advisor or attorney can help you plan.
