Stewardship


“…so we, who are many, are one body in Christ.” Romans 12:5

Will We Grow? The Many Faces of Cary Presbyterian
Stewardship Emphasis 2009

Our Growing Faith stewardship has come to a close for 2009. We are grateful for the Estimate of Giving Cards that have been generously completed and returned to our Recording Treasurer, Mary Lou Imber.

Remember, we are led by our faith and follow with our commitment.

Memorials and Endowments

The Memorials and Endowments Team manages designated gifts to the church as well as managing the church's endowment held by New Covenant Funds. The church created the endowment fund in 1998 and it reached it's initial principal balance of $100,000 in 2007. It now uses the ensuing interest disbursements to support programmatic needs throughout the church.

The CPC Memorials & Endowment Team has announced a new grant cycle for 2010.

The purpose of an M&E grant is to provide resources to support faith based initiatives. These initiatives must align with the overall purpose of the Endowment Fund which is to provide opportunities for members to support the benevolent, educational, and mission work of the whole church. Specifically, the church desires to enlarge the scope of the congregation’s work and influence by

  1. initiating, supporting, and maintaining worthy community projects;
  2. participating more fully in the many avenues for service to God and to humankind offered by our denomination, including religious fellowship, worship and education;
  3. expanding its witness to Jesus Christ; and
  4. engaging in programs designed to attend the needs and wants of the elderly, sick, poor, young, bereaved, and handicapped, whether physically or mentally.

The grants are one time, non-recurring gifts and are not intended to replace existing budgets or support ongoing projects. Any CPC church member may apply.

The application deadline is Tuesday June 15th and approved grants will be announced by August 15th with funds disbursement by September 15th. Grant applications as well as policy guidelines are located in the church office and below.

Please feel free to contact the M&E Committee with any questions or for more information. CPC M&E Committee members are: Jeff Clark – Chair, Rhonda Carlile, Ruth Guthrie and Brian Short.
