Generosity

GENEROSITY 

At MDPC, Generosity (capital G) is our response to God's generosity. It means giving of our resources, time, and talents to support God's work through the church. Each fall we enter a season of Generosity that culminates in early November on Covenant Sunday, when the MDPC family prayerfully pledges our financial support for the year ahead.

We are grateful to God for His faithful provision to MDPC over the years, and to our generous congregation for their radical giving. All that has been accomplished here is for the glory and the amplification of Jesus and His ministry. 

Pledge materials and information for Generosity 2027 will be available here soon.

Pledging Online

Pledging is quick and convenient, whether on paper or online! A link to pledge online for 2027 will be available soon.

Keep in mind that you are not making a donation, but simply forecasting your donations to MDPC for the following year. You still can participate on Covenant Sunday by checking "I pledged online" on the card you turn in. Hard copies of the Covenant Cards and privacy envelopes will be available at the Front Office, the Connection Center, and in the pews.

Why Is Pledging Important?

  • It is a sign of your trust in God’s provision and a tangible commitment to His work through MDPC.
  • It helps us better plan and budget, improving operational efficiency.
  • It allows Outreach to know what level of support we can commit to MDPC ministry partners.
