RESPONSIBLE STEWARDSHIP AS FAITH PRACTICE.

Every Pastoral Note emphasizes the importance of accountable stewardship as a faith practice. Responsible management of resources extends beyond just financial support; it includes the mindful care and management of all our gifts—our time, talents, and resources.

Thank you to every member who takes this spiritual discipline serious. We appreciate your dedication to our congregation.

Before I greet you for the last time in a Pastoral Note for 2024, I pray the prayer, written by Henri Nouwen for Advent, for you and your loved ones.

Master of both the light and the darkness, send your Holy Spirit upon our preparations for Christmas.
We who have so much to do and seek quiet spaces to hear your voice each day,
We who are anxious over many things look forward to your coming among us.
We who are blessed in so many ways long for the complete joy of your kingdom.
We whose hearts are heavy seek the joy of your presence.
We are your people, walking in darkness, yet seeking the light.

To you we say, “Come Lord Jesus!’
Amen.
Ronell Bezuidenhout
