Stewardship: How to Pledge

Your pledge is a yearly commitment of a certain amount of money to help St Philip sustain its ministries and programs. Pledges form the basis of our annual operating budget. The amount you give is as personal as prayer. Just as there is no wrong way to pray, there is no wrong way to pledge. It is the commitment that matters. We ask that you prayerfully reflect on your connection to St Philip and what this church means to you. To assist you in your discernment here is a graph of giving guidelines from the national church. You can fulfill your pledge over the course of a calendar year with a payment schedule that suits your cash flow, knowing all the while that your faith in the St Philip community is deeply appreciated. Pledge cards have been distributed and are available in the Narthex if you haven't received yours.  For more information about pledging contact Gail Thompson, Senior Warden, (503) 860-4618 or Gerry Caldwell at (503)-289-0855.
