Greetings Cascade Family and Friends,
On January 24, we will celebrate our Annual Stewardship/Commitment Sunday at Cascade UMC. As I think about what this Sunday means in the life of the disciple, it is perhaps the second most important day you will spend at Cascade--the first being the day you accepted the invitation to become a member. Now that you are a member, what's the next step? As Christians, we committed our prayers, presence, giving, service, and witness to the United Methodist Church.
Because there is a place for every member, I have spent the last three weeks focusing on "God's Call" on our lives. I have tried to say in addition, that if we are going to rise up to be the church that God is looking for us to become, it will only happen when more of YOU, the laity, respond to God's Call and become actively involved in at least one ministry of the church.
Our Stewardship Ministry Team has planned a Ministry Expo and ministry booths will be set up in Fellowship Hall after each worship service. Ministry leaders and chairpersons will be there to greet you, provide information about the way they serve, answer your questions, and most importantly, to invite you to work with them. If you are already serving in a ministry that maximizes your talents, then remain faithful and God bless you. But, for the large number of you who are not, this is your opportunity to say, "YES!" to God--Yes to your Church; Yes to the work of building the Kingdom. I know that sometimes it's easy to look at a church such as Cascade and think there are more people available than we need. Well, that is not true. In fact, we continue to try to defy and get beyond the 80/20 rule, but have not been able to. You can help us by leaving the 80 and increasing the 20. Pray about it, and then follow God. You are being sought after to bless and to be blessed. Don't miss this awesome opportunity to grow and serve. Sign up on Sunday!
Blessings,
