First Sunday Plate Offering

Our plate offering on the first Sunday of each month plays an important role in the mission of our church. All cash and coin offerings are dedicated to the Clergy Discretionary account in our budget. During this interim period, while we await the return of Mother Teri as Priest-in- Charge, the Vestry will oversee the use of these funds.

The offering we receive helps support our monthly contribution to Help Network of Russellville, a local nonprofit organization that provides emergency assistance to low-income families and individuals. Our church often receives calls and visits from people seeking help with everyday living expenses and Help Network offers a trusted way to respond to those needs in our community.

After our support of the Help Network, any remaining balance in the Clergy Discretionary account is available for other requests that our church can address directly.

As we continue in the spirit of serving others, please consider giving to the plate offering on the first Sunday of each month.

Thank you,
Mary B. Gunter
On behalf of the Vestry and Finance Committee
