Stewardship: Have you turned in your pledge card?
If you have not had an opportunity to fill out your pledge card and/or youneed a little more time to discern your 2016 pledge, there is still time to turn it in. To help with finalizing the 2016 budget, we are asking our 'ohana to turn in pledge cards by Wednesday, November 25. Here are financial stewardship highlights as of November 12:
- We have received 42 pledges. (Our goal is 80 pledges for 2016.)
- We are happy to report that 6 of those pledges came from families new to the All Saints' 'Ohana
- The total amount pledged (YTD) for 2016 is $108,882. (Our 2016 pledge amount goal is $250,000.)
- We are excited to share that 19 individuals/families of the 36 returning pledges have pledged to increase their offering in 2016.
If you did not receive a pledge card, need another, or have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the Church office by phone (808) 822-4267 or by e-mail. Also, if you were unable to attend the All Saints' Day service, we encourage you to listen to the All Saints' Day sermon, "We are Made to Thrive", which is available on the Stewardship webpage under "Campaign Resources" and on the Sermon Archive webpage.
God of abundance, your love flows like living water filling our hearts and flooding our souls with one desire to know you and make you known. We lift your name on high. We know we are made for so much more than ordinary lives. Empower us to more than just survive because we are made to Thrive! Amen.

All Saints' Holiday Craft Fair Registration Open!
Space is filling up fast! Only a few more gym spots!
The annual All Saints' Holiday Craft Fair & Silent Auction will be taking place on Saturday, December 5, from 9:00 AM - 2:00 PM. The fair, which is run by the Ke Akua Youth Group, has grown to one of the largest craft fairs in Kapa'a, with over 70 booth spaces featuring a variety of incredible crafts, art, clothes, toys, jewelry, quilts, gourmet items and much more, perfect for Christmas gift giving!
This is the youth group's biggest fundraiser of the year. Booth fees go towards their mission and outreach activities, and proceeds from the Silent Auction go towards charities they select each year. Money raised from the food booth is directed towards the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life event that takes place in the Spring in Hanapepe.
Registration for a spot in the fair is now open to the general public... early bird pricing is closed. Register online HERE. Hurry! Lawn spaces are available, but there are only a few more spots left in the gym. For more information, view the flyer below, or visit the webpage HERE. |
