UPCOMING EVENTS

Pledge Sunday Info

God pledges much to us. He pledges that He will never leave us nor forsake us (Heb. 13:5). He pledges that if we believe in Him we shall have eternal life (Jn. 3:16) . He pledges that if we commit (pledge) our way to the Lord, He will bless us (Ps. 37:5). There are examples of pledging ourselves to the Lord's work - they did this in making the tabernacle, building the Temple, rebuilding the walls for Nehemiah.

The idea of a covenant is that God calls us into commitment to Him. Baptism is a pledge to live for God and (if for an infant) raise that child up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. The Lord's Supper is a renewal of our covenant pledge commitment to God- to remember and follow Him.

This Sunday (11/9) we are encouraged to pledge ourselves to God through our church family at Spring Valley Presbyterian. Hopefully, this will be a time of joy like when Moses told the people they didn't need to bring any more offerings to build the tabernacle because they had more than enough. We pledge to God in faith that He will provide for us - and in gratitude for all He has pledged and done for us.
