At the First Presbyterian Church of Eustis we believe that the best way to understand who we are in Christ and who were are called to be is by understanding the message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  

Through Jesus, God showed all of humankind just how much God loves all of Creation. As it reads in Paul’s letter to the Philippians, Jesus gave up all of the riches and glory of Heaven to become humble and to embody sacrificial love.

When we truly grasp this, we can begin to develop a healthy attitude toward our possessions and can become people who live generously and joyously.

What Does It Mean To Be A Steward?

A steward is a person who has been entrusted with another’s resources and who seeks to manage those resources according to the owner’s vision and values.

We need to recognize that everything that we have is a gift from God, and that we are called to use those gifts for God’s glory and to further God’s kingdom.

At First Presbyterian Church we recognize that we need to be responsible and generous stewards of our possessions and finances.  To that end we provide our members and friends with a variety of tools to help them better understand what it means to be a faithful steward.
