A More Excellent Way
Living Gratefully. Giving Faithfully.
2027 Stewardship | Bremen First United Methodist Church
“But strive for the greater gifts. And I will show you a still more excellent way.” — 1 Corinthians 12:31
Growing Together in Faith and Generosity
God has blessed Bremen First United Methodist Church with many gifts. We see those gifts in the people who worship, teach, serve, pray, give, welcome, lead, and care for others.
We also believe God is calling us forward—to reach new people, nurture children and youth, serve our community, deepen our discipleship, and share Christ's love.
Our 2027 stewardship emphasis, A More Excellent Way, invites us to consider how we can faithfully use what God has entrusted to us. Stewardship is more than supporting a budget. It is an expression of gratitude, a commitment to our shared ministry, and an investment in the future of our church.
Why Your Commitment Matters
Every gift makes a difference.
Your generosity supports the worship, ministries, staff, programs, and facilities that make our shared mission possible. As our church continues to grow, faithful and consistent giving helps us sustain our current ministries while preparing for new opportunities.
We invite every household to prayerfully consider making a financial commitment for 2027. If you are not currently giving regularly, consider beginning with an amount you can sustain. If you already give, consider increasing your commitment as your circumstances allow.
Our goal is faithful participation as each household is able.
Make Your 2027 Commitment
As you prayerfully consider your commitment, we encourage you to reflect on the blessings you have received and the difference your generosity can make.
Your commitment helps church leaders plan responsibly and faithfully for the ministries we will support together in the coming year.
Celebration Sunday — November 1
Join us at 10:00 a.m. in the Sanctuary for All Saints Sunday worship and Holy Communion as we celebrate God's faithfulness and bring our commitments forward.

Thank you for being part of Bremen First United Methodist Church and for helping us live gratefully, give faithfully, and follow the more excellent way of love.
