“Your Own from Your Own”

The National message for the 2025 Stewardship program is “Your Own from Your Own” as we offer back to God that which He has given us. He receives our humble offering of bread and wine and returns them to us as His body and blood in Holy Communion.

Stewardship packets have been mailed and may also be accessed from the St. George website for your convenience. Packets are also available in the Church Narthex. Members of the Stewardship Committee are always available and will often have a presence during coffee hour.

“What we are is a gift from God. What we do with that gift, is our gift to God."

~Fr. Andrew

Stewardship is a unique opportunity of commitment to our Church community, which allows us to offer our stewards participation in the many programs we offer.  Vanco, our current online payment processor may be used to submit  electronic payments and is found on our website www.stgeorgeap.org Online Giving or by using the QR Code located below.
