Offertory Tokens

All things come of thee, and of thine own have we given thee. (1 Chronicles 29:14)

The passing of the offering plate makes tangible and communal the act of supporting God’s work. However, as more of us shift to online giving, there are fewer parishioners participating in this tradition. This week, we are introducing Offertory Tokens to bring back a physical gesture to reinforce this spiritual practice.

If you are one of the many generous parishioners who give online, please collect a Token from the ushers when entering the sanctuary. At the time of the offering, place the Token into the plate as a tangible sign of your support of the work God is doing at St. John’s.

(These tokens will be reused every week—please don’t take them home!)

Giving Statements issued

Year-to-date giving statements were mailed out this week. Please let the office know if you did not receive one or if you have any questions. This is the first statement generated from our new system, Breeze. It is extremely helpful for our record-keeping if your information is entered into Breeze accurately. If you have not received a Breeze invitation or need any help with your account, please contact stjohnsdirectoryhelp@gmail.com or Nancy in the office.

Thank you!
