Stewardship

Thank you for your gift to the ministry of Bethany Lutheran Church. As a community that welcomes all people, we celebrate all gifts – financial, time, and prayer...It is a joy to be in this ministry together. Your generosity is greatly appreciated!   

For questions, please reach out to the finance office.

Dear Bethany,

Generosity is a Faith Practice that God models for us. From promises made to Abraham and Sarah, to manna in the wilderness, to crops and flocks, God continues to provide in abundance. And when it comes to sharing the very best, God does not withhold from us, even to giving Jesus to the world.

Through our generosity God invites us into a relationship with God. Making a Commitment can be a solid first step toward a life journey of generosity.

God invites to experience Joy in our giving. Sometimes this happens when we see the results of our giving. And other times the very act of giving brings us joy.

God required Sacrifice so that we would understand the deep impact of giving in a way that truly affects us in our spirit. For it is in our spirit that our relationship with God deepens.

You are invited to complete an Intention of Giving Form for 2026. This allows you to make a commitment, and allows the congregation leadership to more faithfully plan for ministry goals in the coming year. You can do so in the following ways:

1. Online Form - Fill out the form and tap/click submit. The finance team will enter it into Subsplash on your behalf.
2. Paper Form - Download the form or pick one up at the church. Completed forms can be mailed into the church office, emailed to the Finance Team, or dropped off.
3. Subsplash - Enter your yearly amount and tap/click "Create Pledge". There is also an option to setup a recurring gift if you haven't already done so.

Please complete the Intention of Giving form by March 15, 2026 so Bethany Leadership can faithfully plan for the future of Bethany. Thank you for your commitment, generosity, and gifts.

In peace,

Pastor Gary Sandberg
