Stewardship Season is Here!

It's May, and at Faith Des Peres that means it's time for stewardship.  This is the time of year when you are asked to prayerfully consider how much you will give to God and the church in 2010-2011.  More details will follow via mail and e-mail.  We are aiming for 100% participation in this year's stewardship campaign.  If you have not pledged before, make this the year!  It takes everyone to be the church God is calling you to be!
