We joyfully recognize that God has created the world and all that is in it, and that God continues to gracefully and lovingly care for everything in creation. All of creation belongs to God, including the abundance God has placed in our lives. It is our privilege and responsibility as faithful stewards to care for this abundance that has been entrusted to us. Our pledges of financial support reflect this understanding and our call to be trustworthy stewards of God’s blessings in every part of our lives.
