Faith Promise Commitment
In dependence upon God, I will endeavor to
give the amount designated
towards the missions efforts of Woodinville
Community UMC between
November 2014 - October 2015.
3. I understand that the Faith Promise is over and above tithes and
offerings given to the general budget of the church and that the Faith
Promise does not include amounts I give directly to missionaries.
I understand this is a faith agreement between God and me.

special Advent series by
Adam Hamilton
Imagine Jesus from Mary’s point-of-view—proud of
her son, in awe of his gifts and mission, guided by
love for him as a person and so much more. Adam
Hamilton begins at the end, with Mary at the
crucifixion and resurrection; travels back in time as
she witnesses his life and ministry; and ends at the
beginning, with the Christ child born in a stable,
Mary’s beautiful baby. This year, experience Advent
and Christmas with Mary. 5-Week Series begins on Nov. 23 at 9:00 AM.
