WHAT ARE OUR RESPONSIBILITIES?
Having one’s vision classified as “20/20” has always been a good thing. Conversely, the year 2020 is shaping up to be a nightmare! The pandemic thus far has caused numerous businesses to fail, leaving many working individuals suddenly without a job or an income. Community food pantries are having difficulty meeting the food requirements of those who are falling behind financially.
Perhaps because we are not meeting together as a congregation on a weekly basis where we hear reminders of our obligation to sustain weekly giving, we are falling behind in meeting our fmancial expectations. Our continual giving is necessary not only for paying monthly expenses of the church but also for meeting our obligations to the agencies that we support…ACES, CARES, our missionaries in Madagascar, Arrendale Women’s Prison, and others.
Faithful giving is an essential tool for living a faithful life. Sharing the blessings that God bestows on us is part of our moral responsibility as children of God.
