Don’t forget to ‘fall back’ Saturday night! Change your clocks!
November 1st has some significance in the life of the church!
Did you know that the church has an online Church Family Activities Calendar that you can check for important times and dates of events in the life of the church? Forget when CFN starts? You can check the calendar! Can't remember when the next Session or Deacons' meeting you are supposed to be at is happening? You are only a couple of clicks away from finding out.
Go to www.fpclagrande.org
Click on "Church Announcements, Calendars, Videos, and More!"
On the righthand side of the page, you will find the link to the Church Family Activities calendar.
This page also has general church announcements, worship videos, church officers and a wealth of other information that you might need. So before you call or text Donna or the pastors, check to see if the info is on this page!
Bring a friend to dinner tomorrow night! See you at the Friendship Center at 6PM!
As Keith and Laura delve into the questions Jesus asks in scripture, your Stewardship and Giving team want to answer your questions about stewardship. Each week during our fall stewardship campaign, we have included questions and answers relating to stewardship in a bulletin insert. As we know not everyone was in church, we wanted to share them further and wider so if you missed it, you can also have your questions answered!
Each year members and friends of First Presbyterian Church are invited to make an estimated pledge for the year ahead. An estimated pledge is your projected one-year financial commitment to support Christ’s ministry in our congregation, the La Grande community, and the world.
Pledges are essential to FPC’s planning process. Each year, the elders who oversee our church’s ministries prayerfully discern goals, projects, and dreams; then they estimate the cost to achieve them. Once the 2027 estimated pledges are received, our next year’s budget is finalized, and leaders can take action on plans and goals.
We understand that people’s lives and situations do change. That’s why we ask for an estimated pledge, a best guess of what you might be able to give in 2027. It is not a contract. If you need to make a change to your estimated pledge over the course of the year, you can reach out to our Financial Secretary, Ellen Barton.
Greetings in the name of our Risen Lord Jesus Christ!

Understanding stewardship within the context of the Christian life begins with recognizing that God is the owner of all things. Anything and everything we have are resources God has given us, including the gospel message, our churches, our education, our time, our energy, our thought life, the words we speak, the house in which we live, the cars we drive, our children, our spouse, our finances, our job.
It all belongs to God, and God has entrusted it to us for a specific purpose.
What is that purpose? In Matthew 6:33, after telling us to avoid letting scarcity run our lives, Jesus tells us to seek first God’s kingdom and righteousness and all these things will be added unto us. In other words, we are provided for as we pursue the purpose God has entrusted to us, so that we can partner with God to advance God’s kingdom.
Financial stewardship is an important component of a balanced spiritual life. Responding to God’s gracious provision by returning a measure of what God has given is a tangible and meaningful way to express our faith and participate in God’s purpose.
Blessings,
Your Stewardship and Giving Committee
