FIRM FOUNDATION, FAITHFUL FUTURE PLEDGES – ONLINE GIVING
We have been blessed to receive many pledges for our Firm Foundation, Faithful Future capital campaign! If you plan to use online giving to make any one-time or recurring donations to fulfill your pledge or to support the campaign, our Finance Team can help walk you through the process, but we can’t do it for you. It is fairly simple to make changes to your online giving through the Church Center app or on our website, but please reach out to Sherry Hoffman or Pam Pearson for any questions or technical issues.

On December 27th, St. Peter will once again partner with Versiti Blood Centers and Made By Mary in hosting the 5th annual holiday blood drive. Whether you are a life-long donor or first-timer, we would love to see you out to support critically ill and chronically ill patients in our community. Each donation can support up to three patients.

ST. PETER FINANCIAL REPORTS

ESTATE PLANNING
We can face competing priorities when we think about planning our estates someday. As we wrap up this year long consideration, we must ponder whether we see our estate plan as an expression of our Christian faith or just giving up on life. For many years, we focused on building and accumulating. Eventually, however, we must pass on financial assets to others, primarily family or ministries. If done correctly, this “passing on” is a plan for continuing the use of God’s gifts, conveying His blessings. This is not giving up at all, as we look to inherit our eternal inheritance. Your Christian Gift Planning Counselor can help you gain this perspective. Contact Ray Pagels at raymondpagels1@gmail.com or his cell: 847-226-2262.
