Invest in the Future of Pastoral Leadership: Support Our Endowment Fund

Dear Supporters of Grace Church,

We invite you to join us in making a lasting impact on the future of pastoral leadership by contributing to our Endowment Fund, established in partnership with a leading American Divinity School. With your support, we aim to raise $1,000,000 to ensure pastors are equipped and empowered to serve present and future generations.

Why Invest in Pastoral Training?

Pastors are more than spiritual leaders; they are the heart and soul of our communities. They inspire, guide, and uplift us in times of need. By investing in their training, we invest in our society’s well-being and our faith’s future.

The Endowment Fund is specifically designed to provide sustainable support for the training of pastors for generations to come. Your contribution will not only help train pastors today but will continue to support their education indefinitely. It’s a gift that keeps on giving, impacting countless lives for years to come.

Diversity and Inclusion in Pastoral Leadership

The future of pastoral leadership is diverse and dynamic, with leaders emerging from all walks of life, including immigrant and refugee communities. These individuals bring unique perspectives and experiences that enrich our faith communities and challenge us to broaden our understanding of ministry.

However, many aspiring pastors from these backgrounds face financial barriers to accessing quality education. Your contribution to the Endowment Fund ensures that financial constraints do not hinder their ability to pursue their calling. Together, we can empower a new generation of pastors who reflect the full diversity of God’s creation.

How You Can Make a Difference

Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference. Whether you can give $50, $500, or $5,000, your support will help us reach our goal of $1,000,000. Additionally, we challenge 20 individuals and families with greater resources to match our initial $50,000 in donations, doubling the impact of your gift.

Consider leaving a legacy through a bequest or explore other giving options such as stock donations or bank transfers. Your generosity will help grow the Endowment Fund and ensure that future generations of pastors receive the education and training they need to serve with excellence and compassion.

Join Us in Building a Brighter Future

Together, let’s invest in the future of pastoral leadership and build a brighter tomorrow for our faith communities. Your gift to the Endowment Fund is an investment in the transformational power of ministry and a testament to your commitment to the ongoing work of God’s kingdom.

Thank you for your support and generosity. Together, we can make a difference that will impact lives for generations to come.

Warm regards,

John Goldstein Pastor/Grace Church of Evergreen
