Under New Management: a stewardship mini-program for Sunday, June 26^th.
The epistle lesson for June 26^th for the three-year Lectionary Series A is Romans 7:1-13. In Romans 7:4 we read, “Likewise, my brothers, you also have died to law through the body of Christ, so that you belong to another, to Him who has been raised from the dead, in order that we may bear fruit for God.” The Stewardship Committee is offering material for a low-key mini-stewardship program for the weekend of June 26^th using the theme “Under New Management.” Being “Under New Management” implies that we have died to our old way of life and have risen to new life in Christ. The two links below contain the following materials: Sermon outline, lay reader talk, bulletin messages, worship helps, tri-fold and order form for the tri-fold brochure and banner.

Resources

To improve and energize the stewardship ministry in your church, please consider using a year-round stewardship educational resource titled “12 Months of Congregational Stewardship” written by Ron Chewning, a member of the Michigan District Stewardship Committee. “12 Months of Congregational Stewardship” will help your members understand stewardship as a way of life that honors Christ. It will challenge and equip your members to respond to God’s grace by giving more of their time, talents, and money. For Michigan District churches, the Stewardship Committee has arranged that, until August 15th, you may order this resource at a discounted price of $70 plus shipping rather than the regular $89 price. No prepayments are necessary. If you have already used volume 1, you may order volume 2 at the same $70 discounted price. A detailed flyer can be found here.
