STEWARDSHIP
1 Peter 4:10 (NRSV) -- "Like good stewards of the manifold grace of God, serve one another with whatever gift each of you has received."
Faith Forward: Growing Our Faith Through Generosity
“for we walk by faith, not by sight.” — 2 Corinthians 5:7 (NRSV)
At Topsail Presbyterian Church, we give thanks for the many ways God is at work in our congregation and community. As we grow in faith together, we recognize that everything we have—our time, our abilities, and our resources—is a gift from God. Stewardship is our faithful response to these blessings, lived out through generosity, service, and heartfelt commitment to God’s mission.
Stewardship is more than giving—it’s a way of living. It includes our contributions of time, talents, financial resources, love, and hard work. At its heart, stewardship is a faithful response to God’s blessings and a reflection of our relationship with Him. At Topsail Presbyterian Church, we believe stewardship is the outward expression of our inner commitment to God.
God Gives to Us—We Give to Others
Jesus’ Great Commission calls us to live out our faith through action: to share God’s word, to care for our neighbors, and to be good stewards of His creation. When we give of ourselves—through service, generosity, and compassion—we become the hands and feet of God in the world.
Supporting God’s Work Through Giving
Though only one part of stewardship, financial giving is a vital way we participate in God’s work. Our tithes and offerings support the mission and ministries of Topsail Presbyterian Church—worship, outreach, education, care, and more. Every gift, no matter the size, helps us serve others, share the love of Christ, and build a strong, faithful community. Giving is not just a transaction; it’s an act of worship and a reflection of our trust in God’s provision.

Special Offerings
Topsail Presbyterian Church participates in a number of special offerings as a way to live out our call to serve others in Christ’s name.
Locally, we support the Presbyterians’ Answer to Hunger (PATH) offering as a simple but powerful way to fight hunger. Members set aside a small gift, such as five cents per meal, and bring it on the second Sunday of each month. A portion of this offering stays in Hampstead to support the 4C’s Food Pantry, while the rest helps provide meals, support sustainable agriculture, and fund nutrition and self-sufficiency programs. PATH links our daily bread to the needs of others, reminding us of Christ’s call to share so that all may be fed.
Topsail Presbyterian Church participates in a number of special offerings as a way to live out our call to serve others in Christ’s name. The Special Offerings of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) are three powerful, church-wide giving initiatives that unite congregations in responding to God’s grace through compassionate action. These offerings— One Great Hour of Sharing, World Communion Offering, and Christmas Joy Offering —reflect key seasons in the church year and support ministries of disaster relief, hunger alleviation, Christian formation, peacemaking, and leadership development. They represent the largest way Presbyterians collectively embody their faith by lifting up the most vulnerable and advancing reconciliation, justice, and global witness. These offerings connect our congregation with the broader mission of the Church, allowing us to extend our focus beyond our own walls and join with Presbyterians everywhere in making a difference both locally and globally.
One Great Hour of Sharing
Each year during the season of Lent, the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) lifts up the One Great Hour of Sharing Offering as a way for us to join together in responding to Christ’s call to serve our neighbors in need. Around the world, millions of people lack access to life’s basic necessities — food, clean water, sanitation, safety, education, and opportunity — and are vulnerable to disasters, hunger, poverty, and the challenges of migration and displacement. Through this offering, Presbyterians provide practical support through three interconnected ministries: relief and recovery in the wake of natural and human-made disasters, efforts to alleviate hunger and systemic poverty, and programs that empower communities to address the root causes of injustice and build long-term resilience. Gifts to One Great Hour of Sharing help bring safety, sustenance, and hope to individuals and communities near and far. This year, the offering will be received from February 18 through April 5, 2026, with many congregations observing it on Palm Sunday or Easter Sunday. Click the logo to learn more.
