Stewardship
Program
St. Nektarios is a full stewardship parish
that requires no minimum pledge in order to
be a member. Our Stewardship Program encourages
parishioners to pledge donations in any amount,
either as one-time, regular, or periodic payments.
Our annual Stewardship Pledge Drive occurs
in the fall for the next calendar year—parishioners
are usually contacted for participation at
that time, although new members and current
members may complete a Stewardship Pledge
Card at any time.
To Become a Member of St. Nektarios
For more information about becoming a member,
or to have a Welcome Packet mailed to you,
please call the church office at (704) 708-4669.
Our Welcome Packet includes a Membership Registration
form and a Time and Talent Survey, which should
be completed and returned to the church office.
Stewardship Pledge Cards can also be obtained
at the office.
A member in “good standing,”
as defined in our By-Laws, is one who:
- Is 18 years of age
or older.
- Was baptized according
to the rites of the Orthodox Church
or was received in to the Orthodox Church
through Chrismation.
- Lives according
to the faith and cannons of the Church,
and has signed a stewardship pledge
card.
- Abides by the “Special
Regulations and Uniform Parish Regulations
of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of
America,” and the local Parish
By-Laws.

Note: To be able to vote
at a general assembly or in parish elections
or to run for parish council, a member in
good standing must also have been active in
the liturgical life of the church for six
months.
