By Traci Rabenstein, executive director of Mission Advancement for the Church of the Brethren<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the heart of the Church of the Brethren is a deep trust in God\u2019s promise to work powerfully through faithful people. Scripture reminds us that God can \u201cdo immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to the power at work within us\u201d<\/em>\u2014bringing glory to God through the church, now and for generations to come (Ephesians 3:20\u201321, NIV).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That promise is alive in the work of our Core Ministries for the Church of the Brethren. Through your support, Core Ministries helps form leaders, nurture congregations, respond to human need, and witness to Christ\u2019s peace in the world. These ministries strengthen the church\u2019s mission and ensure that our shared values\u2014service, compassion, justice, and faith\u2014continue to shape lives and communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Right now, we invite you to take part in a meaningful opportunity to extend that impact even further. Thanks to the generosity of dedicated supporters, all gifts to Core Ministries will be matched dollar for dollar\u2014up to $100,000. This matched gift campaign is available through March 31, doubling the power of your generosity during this important season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whatever the amount, your gift is a faithful response to God\u2019s work in the world.<\/strong> Together, through God\u2019s power at work within us, the Church can do more\u2014far more\u2014than we could ever do on our own.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
