Giving through St Paul |
 |
|
This spring many of us have been engaging in conversations about stewardship “how we as stewards make decisions about our lives, our possessions, and our time. As we dedicate our lives to God, we make decisions about what we do with our lives. Stewardship is more than talk of tithing, more than figuring out how to pay the expenses of the church.
It is about how we live out our calling, how we spend our energy and our resources for God's work. Stewardship colors all of our life's decision-making. As a community we can inspire each other with generosity, encouraging an attitude of gratitude. We are called to be the body of Christ in the world “to do God's work, share our blessings received from God, and do God's will.” How will we take care of all that God has blessed us with? How will we use these blessings to accomplish God's will for the world?
There are a variety of ways that you can give through St. Paul.
- Give offering during worship services.
- Send a check to the St. Paul office (1600 Grant St, Denver, CO, 80203).
- Set up automatic withdrawal through your bank.
- In order to be stewards of our offerings, we have chosen to not have payments set up through our website which requires a transaction fee.

Lenten small groups this year will focus on stewardship and living a life simply and generously, using the Make It Simple resource from the ELCA.
The small group gatherings will provide opportunities for study, reflection, and discussion about the choices we make in our daily lives.

The Stewardship Committee of St. Paul is made up of 5-10 church members who meet monthly to discuss the Stewardship needs and possibilities of our communities of faith. Summarily, our mission is to:
Aid in the discernment of gifts through relationship with God and with all people;
Guide members in becoming active/participatory partners in St. Paul's ministry;
Develop strategies for growing the membership and resources for carrying out the ministries of St. Paul.
In addition, we will encourage the community of St. Paul to:
Respond to the needs of our greater community using our spiritual, service, and financial gifts;
Trust that our needs will be met, and we will be given the gifts to continue helping others.
