GENEROSITY 2025

  • Roswell Presbyterian Church

Would you prayerfully consider how God is calling you to financially support the ministry of Roswell Presbyterian Church in 2025?

Would you prayerfully consider how God is calling you to financially support the ministry of Roswell Presbyterian Church in 2025?

Every fall, we ask our members to prayerfully discern how God calls us to support the church’s ministries financially for the upcoming year. Your commitment allows the RPC leadership to budget wisely for the ministries we are called to.

It’s hard to measure the full impact of your generosity. This past year, we hosted HomeStretch’s summer school, welcomed unhoused families through Family Promise, and had over 400 children and volunteers at Vacation Bible School. We’ve also held hundreds of worship services, Bible studies, mission trips, and retreats. Your generosity truly makes a difference!

If you’ve never made a financial commitment to RPC, would you consider doing so this year? If you already give, would you consider increasing your support? To keep up with inflation, we rely on members to increase their giving to sustain and grow our ministries. Would you prayerfully consider how God is calling you to support the ministry of Roswell Presbyterian Church in 2025 financially?

Adult Community Groups

Virtual groups are meeting regularly

Virtual groups and Sunday School classes

Do you live far from RPC and looking for ways to connect beyond Sunday worship? Or, maybe you’d like to participate in a weekly Bible study but can’t get away from work. If this describes you, consider one of our weekly virtual Bible studies. These groups meet each week over Zoom or both in-person and on Zoom so you can connect to RPC right where you are.

Wednesday Virtual Bible Study
Wednesdays at 12:00 p.m.
Virtual only

Do you travel for work and miss being a part of a small group community? Are you homebound due to illness, injury, or age? Do family obligations have you splitting time between time zones? Or are you working from home and looking for a Bible study on your lunch break? Whatever your situation may be, we would love for you to come check out our new virtual Bible study!
