The Ripple Effect . . .
Greetings in the name of our risen Lord, Jesus Christ! Together, through the mission and ministry of Christ Church, we are a Ripple Effect of God’s love in the world as we reflect the love, hope and joy of Jesus to one another and the community!
The great hymn, Great is Thy Faithfulness proclaims: “Great is thy faithfulness, morning by morning new mercies I see, all I have needed thy hand hath provided, great is they faithfulness, Lord, unto me!” Amen! Thus, in response to God’s faithfulness, with joy and thanksgiving, we have the opportunity to faithfully commit our financial resources to God on October 19.
October 19 is Commitment Sunday. With grateful hearts we have the opportunity to invest in the ministry and mission of Christ Church in 2026. As we invest, the words of Solomon in Proverbs 11:25 ring true: “A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.”
As we creatively seek to “refresh others,” each commitment made for 2026 is invaluable. Your generosity is a tangible way to embrace God’s call to partner with God in God’s acts of new creation. Thank you in advance for your commitment to invest in the mission and ministry of Christ Church in 2026!
The week of October 12 you will receive in the mail a brochure celebrating the mission and ministry of Christ Church. Included in the mailing will be a commitment card. Please complete the Commitment Card, and return it to the church one of the following ways:
- Mail the card to the church; an envelope is included in the mailing.
- If you will be worshiping with us in-person on October 19, bring it with you to worship and place it in the offering plate; or
- Bring your commitment card to the church office.
- Alternatively, you can make your commitment online at www.christchurchfl.org/pledge.
If you need a Commitment Card, please call the church office, 954.771.7300, and ask that one be mailed to you.
With glad and generous hearts, Cathy and I invite you to join us in making a Commitment for 2026.
Thank you for your faithfulness. You will be in our prayers as you determine how you will invest in the mission and ministry of Christ Church in 2026; it is a privilege to serve in ministry with you. May our God of resurrection, bless you abundantly with resurrection living!
Though Christ,
Pastor Doug
