“Doing My Part”MCC San Diego Annual Pledge Drive

Just as we bring our gifts of wine and bread to God’s table, we present ourselves as an offering through our financial gifts


We are each called upon to give a share of our resources to our faith community so that we may continue sustaining our church and its ministries.

Doing My Part”MCC San Diego Annual Pledge Drive

Q Why is it so important for MCC San Diego to count on consistent and regular giving?

A Without it, funding our current ministries and establishing new ministries becomes more challenging.

Think about it in terms of your own life…


Unpredictable income makes it challenging to…

meet our obligations celebrate our lives plan for the future

In our own lives, steady income is indispensable!


And what is true in our own lives is also true for our church.


That’s why pledgingyour annual support is so important!


When we know how our financial gifts are being used to do God’s work, we are reinforced in our giving…
