A Word from Pen
In one of the most beautiful and compelling pieces of our scripture we are called to a special and joyful purpose, Hear, O Israel: the Lord is our God, the Lord alone. You shall love the Lord with all your heart, and with all your soul, and will all your might. (Deut 6:4-5) Jesus adds that we should love our neighbor as ourselves.
Just after these words, Deuteronomy reminds us of a truth we already know – that we live in cities that we did not build; that we drink from wells that we did not dig; that we eat from vineyards that we did not tend. (Deut 6:10-11)
At First Presbyterian Church, each of us are nurtured and shaped into disciples because of the work of those faithful saints who have come before us. A program of planned giving is a way that we can continue to build on a strong foundation for those who will come after us.
This webpage will give you the information that you need to prayerfully consider extending the ministry of First Presbyterian Church to future generations. I stand ready to meet with you about your intention to give, as do our advisors at the Texas Presbyterian Foundation.
With great gratitude for the grace of God and for the faithfulness of God’s people,
Pen
