2011 Closing Stewardship Message...

It is our duty and responsibility as Orthodox Christians to support our Archangel Gabriel parish and its ministries. The only proper, responsible and appropriate way in which we can function is when each of us participates in stewardship.Our stewardship must cover all our operational costs.
    

To all the families that have offered their stewardship in full, thank you for your diligent and faithful work.                                                                                                  

To those who have made their stewardship pledge and have a balance to pay, thank you, and we hope you are able to finish the balance by the end of the year.

To those who have not yet pledged, we need your support as soon as possible.  It is not our neighbor’s responsibility to support our portion of the work.

Each individual is responsible for helping carry a part of load. Solomon built the temple on the site where David made the first offering of sacrifices in Jerusalem. Originally the land belonged to a man named Orna the Jebusite who offered it to David, plus the oxen plus the wood for burning.  David respectfully declined the offer and insisted on paying for it himself by saying, “I will not offer burnt offerings to the Lord my God with something that costs me nothing.”  2 Sam. 24:24
