Christ, Creed, Culture

I am revising this appeal from Saturday (not the best day to post such things, I'm told). Thanks to those who've already responded!

I mentioned the "bad economy" or the news reports about it in a previous post. We've been told that non-profit organizations such as ours should expect to feel the pinch, if they haven't already. One opportunity for support that we would very much like to encourage is monthly support. This gives a regular base of support upon which to build, especially through some of the leaner months (such as summer).

January is a good time to assess what you might be able to contribute on a monthly basis to support the work of the Fellowship, publishing Touchstone, our Calendar, Devotional Guide, & Salvo, all aimed in their own way ultimately to help Christians think straight and stay focused on the rich, vital, enduring common tradition of our faith going back more than 2,000 years, appealing to that great cloud of witnesses surrounding us, in other words we try to keep our eyes on Christ, Creed, and Culture.

The culture has been greatly desacralized, with materialism and appetite touted, the engines of an economy that is largely indifferent if not hostile at times to virtue, grace, mercy, joy, love, and peace. Our Christian culture, however, is timeless: The saints live in Christ; we live in Christ; our community spans the centuries, embraces all races, languages, and tribes, united at the foot of the Cross. We aim, by God's grace, to keep our eye on Christ and His mission, and help you do so too.

Please consider signing up today as a monthly supporter of the Fellowship of St. James. Even a small monthly contribution really adds up over the course of year!
