First Church and Parish - Dedham
A UNITARIAN UNIVERSALIST CONGREGATION - Gathered In 1638
Stewardship at First Church and Parish Dedham
A steward is someone who takes care of a property or organization. We consider every member and friend of First Church a steward because it takes all of us to keep our history of love and service alive. We care for First Church in many ways.
​
We live our values by doing everything from attending worship, singing in the choir, teaching in the UU Exploration Program, serving on committees, joining in activities and events, connecting with friends, helping each other when we are in need, engaging in our wider community for civic justice and pledging to support the church.
​
The reason we ask for your financial pledge every Spring is so that we may plan our budget for the next fiscal year. We only ask that everyone contibute what they can afford to comfortably. A pledge is not a binding contract; it is a promise that represents a hope. While the office will remind you of your pledge, we understand that things change.
​
This year our goal is $104,000 in pledged income to support our Church and Parish. We did not quite reach that goal - but we came close!
