We understand that a church and its members must be active in six types of ministry:

  • Worship
  • Education
  • Fellowship
  • Evangelism
  • Service
  • Stewardship

“…worship, witness, service, fellowship, teaching/learning, stewarding. All six. While size will shape how a parish comes at each, doing each is a must. No parish is excused from any ministry focus. Parish worth is measured by faithfulness to that full spectrum of ministry in their moment with the means they have at hand.” — Charles S. Mueller, Sr.

Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God. If anyone serves, he should do it with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen. 1 Peter 4:10-11

But just as you excel in everything—in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in complete earnestness and in your love for us—see that you also excel in this grace of giving. 2 Corinthians 8:7

Stewardship is about sharing the Lord's abundance that He has given us.

Stewardship Ministry Purpose Statement:
To manage and encourage the growth of the resources of Peace Lutheran Church in a God-pleasing, prudent, serving manner, in order that the members and leadership of Peace may focus their time and energy more on ministry (versus operations), all to the glory of God.
