The Stewardship Committee conducts all activities that help to provide the church with its operating budget, as well as conducting special programs that relate to long term financial support, such as a wills and bequest program.

Since the Mendon Church annually sets aside a portion of this budget for allocation by the missions committee, the stewardship committee also acts indirectly as a source of missions funding.

You can tell the Stewardship Committee your yearly pledge online. When you click this pledge link it is sent directly to the pledge committee.

The highlight of the stewardship committee's activities occur around mid November, when the annual Faith Commitment campaign is conducted.  Since the Mendon Church is committed to operating on a balanced budget principle, the results of the Faith Commitment Campaign serves as the budget basis for the following year.

Over the past five years, the Faith Commitment campaign has more than doubled the campaign results.  This expression of faith by the congregation has led to increased spending, higher quality programming and increased staff services, thus allowing the voluntary congregational workforce to focus on areas of importance in doing God's work for us - teaching evangelizing, and missions.
