In this episode of Tiny Pulpit Talks, we dive into the important work behind the scenes at the church with special guest Martha Norton, a long-time congregant and staff member who currently works in stewardship and finance. Martha shares her journey of gratitude and how she has spent the last decade helping sustain the church’s mission by thanking members for their generosity. Martha and Rev. T. J. FitzGerald discuss what stewardship means, the upcoming Canvass 2025 campaign, and how contributions directly impact the community. They explore how the church reaches beyond its walls to spread love and inclusion to families across the world, and how giving reflects the values of its members.
