WHAT IS THE STEWARDSHIP CAMPAIGN? www.bumc.net/Stewardship Our annual stewardship campaign is targeted at raising general operating funds for the church. These funds are vital for day-to-day operations, making it possible for Brentwood UMC to fulfill its mission of making disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. For example, because of this year's operating funds, we are able to remember those saints who have passed on with a rose on the altar in honor of All Saints' Day.
