Personal checks or cash can be placed in the offering baskets but if you are giving cash and would like to have it credited to your contribution statement, please enclose it in an envelope with your name and address. Envelopes are available at the Info Desk or in the Information Racks around the building. Missional NeedsAnother part of worship and spiritual formation is service. There are many needs here at church, in the community, and abroad. We encourage everyone to consider their gifts, talents, and callings and put these to work in service of the Kingdom. A good place to start finding your place of impact is in the monthly publication, Missional Needs which is inserted in your bulletin today. This publication can also be found on the home page of the web site. Later this month, we will be asking people to complete a survey of ministry interests and spiritual gifts that will help us match gifts and interests with real needs.
