Dear Emmanuel Parish Family,
Thank you for being a vital part of our mission. As we enter this season of reflection and gratitude at Emmanuel, we give thanks for the many ways God’s love has been revealed among us. Through worship, fellowship, outreach, and care for one another, our parish continues to be a place where the light of Christ shines brightly.
Each year, our annual stewardship drive invites us to prayerfully consider how we can support the mission and ministry of Emmanuel Episcopal. Stewardship is not simply about meeting a budget; it is about responding with joy and faith to the gifts God has entrusted to us. Your continued generosity sustains our worship, strengthens our ministries, maintains our historic building, and enables us to serve our neighbors in Webster and beyond in Christ’s name.
We invite each of you to join in making a monetary pledge for 2026. Please prayerfully consider this moment and the future that we can create together in the upcoming year. Your pledge, as well as your vision for 2026, is important. Every gift, no matter the size, is a vital part of our shared witness to the Gospel. Together, we can continue building a community of hope, compassion, and love.
Thank you for your prayerful consideration and for all the ways you give of your time, talent, and treasure. May God bless you and your household in this season and always.
Peace,
Your stewardship chairperson,
John Long

How Do I Pledge?
Every Sunday until our Stewardship Ingathering, members of your vestry will be handing out pledge cards in the narthex prior to the service. Please fill out these pledge cards and either place them in the collection plate or return it to the office (in person or by mail). If you are not able to make it to church please contact the office and we can mail you one.

You can also fill out an online pledge card, found here, or by scanning the QR code to the right.
At our Stewardship Ingathering Sunday, November 16, we will ask everyone to bring their card to the altar to be blessed. We will have all cards already turn in at the altar ready to be blessed. |

How do I contribute to my pledge?
Like you would donate to any non-profile! Emmanuel is equipped to take cash, checks, and CC/ACH contributions.
When setting up your pledge giving through our online giving portal, make sure to set a start date and end date. Otherwise, your pledge will keep going past 2026. A typical start date and end date would 1/1/2026 to 12/31/2026.
If you already have a scheduled pledge without an end date, please make sure to end it before setting up a new pledge. Contact Elliot if you need help with this process.
