What are your gifts?

We believe that in Sharing our Gifts, we Grow the Faith. Sometimes, we have gifts within us that we may not recognize. Gifts might be thought of as financial, but how can we put own gifts of talents into action to praise and serve God? What are YOU being called to do? We might think of the training or skills we possess from a degree or career field, perhaps you are certified in a technical or trade field. While an area of expertise may be a comfort zone, don’t limit yourself to that.

Each of us possess gifts we may not recognize, but that others can see within us. Perhaps friends or persons around you have praised you for something or noted a talent you have. Maybe you have hobby interests with hidden skills, a passion to learn new things, or the ability to organize or lead.

How will you know what you are being called to do?

Whenever you think “I should do that”, perhaps you are being called to that service. Ever consider taking action but then finding an excuse or talking yourself out of it? Maybe you were being called to sign up, but you didn’t want to listen. Have you ever had an idea of how you could make something better? Maybe that is a sign for you to volunteer.

I want to get involved, where is help needed?

Reach out to the church office and share your desire with the pastor. They will be delighted to learn about your desires and will probably have some ideas of where match your particular gifts within our ministries.

Do you recognize gifts of other?

We want to help each other identify their gifts. Look for opportunity to recognize and appreciate the gifts of others. Providing encouragement to take action and the praise of efforts is a valuable component of our discipleship pathway, as we each seek to take the next steps of our faith walks.
