579-7000 • firstunitedbank.com April: A Time for Spiritual Reflection & Renewal

As we enter the month of April, we’re greeted by a time of renewal. Spring is also a time of profound spiritual importance as people celebrate Easter in the Christian tradition, the completion of Passover in the Jewish tradition, and the beginning of Ramadan in Islamic tradition.

All three of these faith traditions focus on individuals taking time to pause, contemplate, and give thanks for the trials and challenges their faith has seen them through, whether personal, business-related, or both. Slow down and take the time to reflect.

You may ask, how does faith fit into a banking relationship? At First United Bank, four pillars guide our desire to elevate lives, families, businesses, and communities: Faith, Financial Well-Being, Health and Wellness, and Personal Growth. As a part of those four pillars, we believe that having a strengthened spiritual belief system helps those we serve to spend life wisely.

We believe our lives need meaning and grounding to spend life wisely, which in part is defined by one’s spiritual journey.

We believe that a meaningful life has purpose and is generous in loving and serving others as the Creator teaches us.

A strong spiritual foundation is one of the things that empower us to respond differently. This is not to say that we will not have anxious feelings or experience moments of doubt, but our response should ultimately be grounded in our faith’s teachings.

April is also a time of growth. It is a time to open our hearts and minds and grow in our spiritual development. It is a time to take what we have learned and act on it in the weeks and months to come.

Our First United Bank lobbies have intentionally created spaces filled with curated reading selections on spiritual growth and our other pillars. These books are available for free for you to take home and aid in your growth journey. Additionally, you can visit spendlifewisely.com to find a wealth of resources at your fingertips.

During this season of renewal, we hope you will take time, in whatever your spiritual tradition, to reflect, to give thanks, and grow in your spiritual journey.
