With any luck this is my final Weekly Update devoted to the annual pledge drive!  I and the other members of the Stewardship Team are hoping that everyone can pledge by this coming Sunday, March 12th. You can bring your pledge card to the special Sunday service that is planned for the 12th; or bring your pledge card to the March 10th pledge party (7 PM at the church); or mail your card to the church; or pledge on line by clicking here. If you did not receive a pledge card in the mail last week, Stewardship Team members will be at the party Friday night and in church on Sunday with a pledge card for you.

The annual pledge drive brings in about two-thirds of the funds that provide worship and music on Sundays, pastoral care throughout the year, children and adult religious education programming, and community outreach. Our goal this year for the pledge drive is $393,000, which will come from roughly 160 households.

Thank you for your generous pledge to First Parish.

In the spirit of community,

Tom Rich

Board Chair
