10 for 10 Campaign
As discussed at our spring Voter’s Assembly, on Sunday, September 14 we will begin our “10 for 10 Campaign” at Trinity. This stewardship campaign will focus on “time”, “talents”
and “treasures” and we will encourage everyone associated with Trinity to increase their
current level in all three avenues during a 10 week period. We will give thanks collectively
for a successful campaign with the Thanksgiving dinner (Sunday November 23).
We often hear that stewardship involves Time, Talents, and Treasures. This campaign will
focus on all three.
Some ideas:
Time: If we consider that many of us have a 40-hour work week, then consider spending
10% of that time, or 4 hours per week, in worship, Bible study, and/or devotion. We plan on
adding small group studies, prayer vigils, and other opportunities during that time.
Talents: We would ask the congregation to join a board, committee, choir, community
charity, etc for a 10-week period. If one already belongs to such a group, then try joining
one additional group for the 10-week period. (Examples: one might join the choir for 10
weeks, or join the Board of Trustees for 10 weeks.) Our boards and committees will provide
each member with a list of opportunities in which to participate.
Treasures: We would ask the congregation to consider “giving back” to God, 10% of their
income over this 10-week period. If that is not possible, then members may consider increasing
what they currently give by 10% for this period.
We strongly believe that this is a “spiritual growth” exercise and we will be individually and
collectively blessed by doing so. We also feel this program is in line with our Strategic Ministry
Plan (SMP) and will help us focus on others and what God has given to us.
Please, help make this a campaign with 100% participation among our congregation!
