2024 Stewardship for HUMC

Let us hold fast to the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who has promised is faithful. And let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good deeds.
HEBREWS 10:23-24

Having a strong, vibrant, and active church allows us to serve others. As we look ahead to 2024 and the ministry and mission of Hinsdale UMC, it is our hope that we will unite to do “All the Good You Can” by loving, caring, and serving more people with the love and grace of Jesus Christ.

We will be prayerfully considering our financial support of the church as we face our own transition. Our beloved Pastor Young-Mee will be retiring at the end of June 2024 after serving the people of the Northern Illinois Conference for over 21 dedicated years! And we continue to make progress on our plans to lease the west portion of our building to an established Montessori Gifted preschool to serve the needs of families in our community (and reestablish the 52-year history of a preschool in our church). With your loyal support, our church can manage these critical transitions and renew our commitment to increasing our outreach in the community. The need for us to share our welcoming message and tailor programs to help families develop spiritual and moral growth is now more critical than ever in this fractured world.

In the coming weeks, Pastor Young-Mee and various members will share how they live their stewardship in its many forms. Hopefully, their passion, vision and experiences will allow you to reflect on your own personal journey of doing “All the Good You Can.”

Please come join us on this exciting journey and prayerfully consider making a financial gift through a pledge to support the programs, ministries, and mission of HUMC for the coming year.

Thank you!
