Dear Friends and Members of Shadow Rock, 

Grace to you, peace to you. We hope you're doing well.

On Sunday, October 11, we introduced our stewardship campaign for Shadow Rock’s 2027 operating budget: Cultivating Shadow Rock. Fall in Arizona is the time to plant, to cultivate the shade of a garden for a new beginning, and Shadow Rock needs your help. Thanks to your past generosity and planning, we have already grown much of the garden where our community currently thrives.

We are so thankful for all the effort, time, and attention that have already cultivated this sacred space, but there is much more work to be done.

Our general operating budget underwrites the daily expenses of our church, community outreach, compensation for our pastor and staff, support of the wider church, programming, and campus care. We plan and develop our budget mindfully, guided by the thoughtful pledges provided by folks like you who are excited for our new beginnings. For 2027, we ask that you consider how you can financially support the mission of Shadow Rock with your monetary pledge for 2027.

What Are We About? Our core values of inclusion, justice, and spirituality are the foundation for all we do. The next few Sundays, there will be "Cultivation Moments" during worship service as we share information, hopes, and dreams for Shadow Rock. These moments will celebrate how our support of the Shadow Rock operating budget supports and lives out these values.

Your Response Is Vital as We Plan for 2027! Please let Shadow Rock know you support us by using the Electronic Estimate of Giving Card Button below. You can also pledge through the link on the Shadow Rock website.

On Sunday, November 1, we will celebrate our commitment to cultivating Shadow Rock! Whether this is your first time pledging to Shadow Rock or your 50th, we need to hear from you. Thank you!

If you have any questions about pledging, ways to give, or need help filling out this form, please call me at the church office or email me:  Heidi Zinn.

Grace and peace,

Heidi Zinn
