Preparing for financial stewardship is a discipline of the heart. It is infused with joy and thanksgiving. This small congregation gives over a 1/2 million dollars to ministry each year. We do it with love and confidence in the saving mercy of God in our lives and the lives of our neighbors.

Generosity is a mark of the Spirit in the Christian life. For Paul giving is what crosses the boundaries of race, culture, economics, and religious tradition and makes us one in Christ. In this sermon we explore how responding to human need helps the Christian community get beyond our differences. Also enjoy the San Francisco Boys Choir singing "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot."

Every year we celebrate what God is calling us to do in the year ahead by dedicating our yearly estimates of giving to the life and ministry of the church. The parable of the talents reminds us that we have a generous God who expects us to use the gifts we have been given to build the realm of God's kingdom here on earth. It is a joy to participate in this work.
