2014 Church Pledge Drive
This is the time of year when All Souls asks for your financial commitment to our Annual Pledge Drive.
We ask that you reflect on the meaning of All Souls to you and how you will — once again — support our beloved congregation.
Links for the 2014 Pledge Drive forms and other documents can be found at the end of this post (PDF format — requires Adobe Acrobat or other PDF reader software).
Please bring your completed form to church this Sunday (1 December 2013) and please email your household’s annual pledge amount to Melissa Gibson so the Pledge Committee and Finance Committee can create a 2014 budget that reflects our congregational goals and dreams.

Bring a couple dozen cookies to swap out. Make one recipe and take home loads of different kinds of cookies!
Don’t bake? Even better..make a donation to All Souls in lieu of providing cookies. Or do both (That’s cool too)!
There are always tons of cookies available — treat yourself to dessert or use them as neighbor/teacher gifts!
2013 Pledge Drive — Get Your Pledge By Sunday, 9 December 2012
By now you have probably heard from your friendly pledge steward, and you’ve had a bit of time to consider your own finances, your sense of ownership in the church, and the different kinds of gifts that you bring to our faith community and receive from being a part of it.
Please make every effort to get your pledge form turned in by this Sunday (9 December 2012). The Finance Committee will be meeting on Tuesday (11 December 2012) to determine the 2013 budget.
Many thanks for your support of the church!
