And all of us, with unveiled faces, seeing the glory of the Lord as though reflected in a mirror, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another, for this comes from the Lord, the Spirit.

—2 Corinthians 3:18 (NRSV)

A pledge signifies your financial commitment for the upcoming year to support the mission and activities of Covenant. This commitment provides a mechanism for giving intentionally and consistently as we strive toward financial holiness.

Annual pledges guide our Finance Team in creating a practical budget for ongoing and new ministries. They form the bedrock of Covenant's financial planning. Notably, around 15% of our annual budget comes from non-pledge weekly offerings, but pledges from the stewardship campaign remain the primary revenue source for our ministries.

God is calling Covenant to great things in 2024 and your financial support will be more pivotal than ever.

Whether you pledge online or use the physical card, bring your pledge card to worship on Sunday, Feb. 4. Together, we'll offer our thanks to God and commit our pledges to support Covenant’s mission.

Greetings, Brothers and Sisters in Christ!

It has been a true blessing to be in fellowship with you over the past year! The Spirit of God has been busy and it has been my joy to see the ways you have partnered with that work. Glory to God! Thank you for your generosity and commitment to our shared work—more than any building, YOU are Covenant.

In deep work of listening and reflecting, it is clear that God is calling us forward into a more full realization of our birthright given at creation (Genesis 1:26)—we, the people of God, are to become His very own Mirror Image. This work of transformation is a high and worthy calling we receive with humility and joy! As a part of our commitment to this transformational process, we each lean into the spiritual discipline of giving a portion of the resources we have received back to the Giver in stewardship.

As you review these materials, you will notice an increase in the proposed budget. Your Finance Team believes this reflects responsible projections based on a celebration of church growth year-over-year and wise planning for upcoming financial realities, all for the glory of God. Thank you for joining me in pledging to Covenant!

Grace and Peace,

Pastor Jason

The Holy Spirit is at work and great things are happening at Covenant!

We are continually amazed at the faithful generosity of the Covenant family. Despite many challenges and a budget “reset” last year, we are finishing this Budget Year in a strong position. Praise be to God! More importantly, we are growing, making disciples of Jesus and having a positive impact in the community.

The coming year brings its own financial challenges—including significantly higher interest payments. Together, let’s lean into 2024 and prayerfully seek God's guidance as we consider our financial pledges to support Covenant’s ongoing mission.

The budget outlined below will be updated to reflect your pledges and will be finalized upon approval by the church.

Stewardship is a fundamental aspect of our discipleship journey. It calls individuals and families to deeply reflect on the blessings they've received from God and discern how best to utilize these gifts in service to the church and the broader community.

A pledge signifies your financial commitment for the upcoming year to support the mission and activities of Covenant. This commitment provides a mechanism for giving intentionally and consistently as we strive toward financial holiness.

A tithe is a commitment of 10% of one’s income. It is the Biblical standard of giving first introduced by God to Abraham in Genesis 14:20. For most, tithing requires sacrifice. Jesus teaches on the power of sacrificial generosity in Mark 12:41-44 calling us to challenge ourselves. We respond in faith by tithing 10% of our income or by prayerfully and strategically growing toward a tithe.

If you're thinking of supporting Covenant through means like wills, trusts, or estates, indicate your interest on the pledge card. We'll then engage in a dialogue about the various giving avenues available.

We understand that circumstances can change. Should you find yourself unable to fulfill your pledge, please reach out to us.

1. Begin with prayer - Thank God for your blessings. Seek guidance and clarity on determining the right pledge amount.
2. Reflect on past giving - Evaluate your giving last year as a percentage of your income.
3. Set your goal - If you haven't been giving consistently, take the first step this year. Even pledging $5/week ($20/month) can illustrate your heart for our shared work. If you already pledge, aim towards tithing. Commit to increasing your gift by 1-3% of your income. If you already tithe, we thank you for your faithfulness.
