Stewardship

“Praise God from whom all blessings flow; praise Him, all creatures here below; praise Him above, ye heavenly host; praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Amen.”

--Lyrics: Thomas Ken
Music: Att. To Louis Bourgeois

The United Methodist Church (UMW) espouses a “deepening commitment to personal and corporate Christian stewardship, which includes the use and sharing of talents and resources and the practice of a Christian lifestyle.”

Members answer this stewardship invitation through RSVP, a year-round reminder of our vows to support HPCUMC with prayers, presence, gifts and service as well as:

Annual Giving

Every October, members are asked to prayerfully consider their level of giving for the new calendar year. Pledge fulfillment is accepted in various ways, including weekly collection plate donations, one-time payments, automatic payroll deductions (HPCUMC employees only), and automated electronic giving. Additionally, stock may be transferred to the church to fulfill a pledge. Contact [email protected] to arrange electronic giving or to obtain information on transferring stock to the Church.

Special Campaigns

“Changing Lives,” a three-year capital campaign which kicked off in April 2005, is currently underway. Contributions to capital campaigns can be made in the same ways mentioned above for annual giving; be sure to denote capital campaign on the memo line of your check.

Endowments

Some donors prefer behind-the-scenes designated giving. Read more about how gifts, bequests and memorials can be used to support HPCUMC endowments.

Resource Allocation

Your contributions are used for HPCUMC-sponsored ministries, global missions and church operations. Sources and uses of funds are outlined here.

Did you know? Members may authorize monthly electronic bank-to-bank transfers, making contributions to HPCUMC easy and automatic. Simply download and complete this form and place it in the collection plate; mid-month processing continues unless you submit a written change request. (Signatures of all parties required to commence or discontinue.)
