Stewardship is more than giving money. It is a faithful response to God’s goodness. Everything we have belongs to God, and we are invited to use our time, gifts, resources, and generosity to strengthen the work of Christ through the church.
At Prospect Park United Methodist Church, giving helps support worship, discipleship, community outreach, pastoral care, Hope Thru Wholeness, and the ongoing ministry of sharing God’s love with our neighbors.
Giving Reflects Trust
Scripture teaches us to trust God with our whole lives, including our resources. In Malachi 3:10, God calls the people to bring the tithe into the storehouse and promises provision, blessing, and faithfulness.
Giving Supports Ministry
Your generosity helps sustain the ministry of the church, including worship, Christian education, pastoral care, community engagement, outreach, missions, and the practical needs of the congregation.
Giving Blesses Others
The Apostle Paul reminds us in 2 Corinthians 8:2 that even in difficult circumstances, generosity can overflow from a joyful and faithful heart. Stewardship allows us to participate in God’s work of blessing others.
John Wesley taught that Christian stewardship is not simply about giving from what is left over. It is about living with purpose, discipline, compassion, and generosity. As United Methodists, we understand stewardship as part of discipleship — a way of loving God and serving our neighbors with what God has entrusted to us.
We give not out of pressure, but out of gratitude. We give because God has first given to us.
Through faithful stewardship, the ministry of the church reaches beyond Sunday morning. Your generosity helps support worship, discipleship, outreach, mission, and care for neighbors near and far.

“For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
