Stewardship at Avondale
Stewardship season comes this time each year.
It is a time for us to consider our commitments to the church. A time to prayerfully think about what Avondale means to us, and how we can support its mission and programs.
Stewardship packets have been distributed, either in person or by mail. Look to your heart to discern what your commitment to Avondale could be. Plan to return your pledge card on Dedication Sunday, October 3rd.
Grace and peace, the Stewardship Committee

Women's Study beginning
Join women from our community for a journey through the Psalms. The Psalms display the full character of God and glorify God as Creator, Sustainer, Defender, Deliverer, and Savior. The Psalms teach us how to praise, how to pray, and how to live, while providing a framework for how to turn toward God in suffering and grief so we can move through lament to joy!

This 9-week study offers in-person and virtual gathering. |

Sunday School & Small Groups
Faith formation happens over a lifetime and in many settings of church life together. Avondale offers groups for all ages. Read about all our offerings here. And then sign-up! |
