Stand Up in Faith
What is the Stand Up in Faith! Campaign?
The Stand Up in Faith! Campaign is a three-year commitment to launch our missions in a new space that will bring about a new day of ministry in our lives and the communities we serve.
We encourage everyone to attend of one of the three informational sessions that will provide detailed information about the campaign, such as why we are launching this campaign now, the goals of the campaign and how we plan to meet these goals. We also plan to answer any questions you may have about the campaign. Please RSVP for one of these sessions to Bunny Hamer at Bunny.Hamer@gmail.com.

Goals of the Stand Up in Faith! Campaign
Stand Up a new minister… by providing seed funding for an Associate Pastor
Stand Up a new year… by supporting the operational needs of St Stephen in the 2012/13 budget year.
Stand Up to stand down… standing down, or retiring our mortgage debt will free us to answer God’s call and accomplish all of our goals for growth in ministry!
Stand Up in Faith!… that with God’s help we will accomplish these goals – and much more!
Campaign Prayer
God of all Grace,
Help us to use our gifts so that we may rejoice through all our days as we serve You in our community. Let us stand up for Christ and allow the work of our hands to always glorify You.
In Jesus' name we pray,
Amen.

Daily Devotionals
During the next several weeks, we encourage every member and every household to spend each day reflecting and talking with God about His next mission for St Stephen. We hope the devotional booklet you will receive on August 26th, will help you and your family prayerfully consider the time, talents and gifts you have available to dedicate to St. Stephen’s missions and ministries.
