The Power of 1

Colonial's Pledge Campaign is The Power of One. Everyone makes a difference; everyone counts. Some people do'’t pledge because they think it isn't enough, that it won’t make a difference. Remember The Power of One. Your support, at all different levels and in all different ways, provides us with Colonial's building, staff, programs and opportunities so that we can all fulfill our covenant. Come on Sunday mornings to watch videos of the differences you are making. Stop by our bulletin board in the narthex—read about examples of The Power of One and add a story of your own. Click here to print your 2012 Pledge Card. On the back of the Pledge Card is an EFT form if you wish to pledge electronically. Come to the Dedication Service on Sunday, November 13, and bring your card.
