2024 End-of-Year Gift
Dear LSPC Family,
We are writing to:
Acknowledge your increased generosity since the financial update and appeal during the September congregational meeting.
Ask for you to prayerfully consider LSPC as you think about your year-end giving
Thank you so much for your response to our appeal for increased giving during the September congregational meeting. Before anything else, we want to acknowledge that our average weekly giving over the last eight weeks is about 20% higher than what we experienced for the start of the fiscal year and express our deep gratitude for your generosity in helping the church continue its work in this community. Thank You!
However…
Even with this recent increase, giving is still short of our ongoing expenses, and we are on pace for an annual shortfall of about $50-60,000 for the full fiscal year. In light of this, we are asking you to prayerfully consider giving a special end-of-year gift to Lincoln Square Presbyterian Church. End of the Year Gifts are crucial, and they enable us to serve our neighbors and work with our mission partners. Historically, December giving makes up about 20% of our congregational giving (about 3x a typical month) and is very important to our planning for the next year.
Will you help us continue being a place where all things become new by giving a special End of Year Gift to LSPC?
On behalf of the Deacons and Elders,
Will Atkins and Rob Globke
