The Promise of Joy

Dear Church Family,

Your generosity this past year has not only been remarkable, but a clear marker of genuine faith. It has been steady, joyful, generous, and deeply faithful. More than numbers on a page, your giving reflects something far more important. It reflects a heart that understands money as a gift from God, entrusted to us for the sake of His gospel.

When Scripture says, “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also,” it is clear where your treasure lies. Again and again, you have shown that the treasure of your heart is Christ and His kingdom. To give freely and sacrificially is no small thing. It speaks to a people who are being set free from the enslavement of money and who trust the Lord with one of the most vulnerable areas of our lives, our provision.

Through your radical generosity, you have demonstrated that Jesus is kind and that He is sufficient. Not merely in words, but in action. Not reluctantly, but gladly. What a testimony this is, both to one another and to the watching world.

I am deeply grateful to serve a church that values the people of God and the coming kingdom more than comfort or possessions. That kind of faith is rare, and it is a gift of God’s grace.

May the Spirit of God continue to shape us into a people who are sacrificially generous, for the good of His Church and for the glory of His great name.

With deepest humility and gratitude,

Thomas, on behalf of the Pastors of Trinity Church
