The Signatry

God entrusts each one of us with some of his resources to steward. When we think about charitable giving, more than just our cash is at stake. Everything we have, from our family to our time to our wealth, belongs to God. Everything we are given to steward can be put to work to in support of what is important to God. As a parent, the way you use what you have teaches your children how you respond to God's trust in you. How are you teaching your children to steward God's resources? #wealthmanagement #thesignatry #positiveparenting #motherhood #assetmanagement

When you take a moment to evaluate your family's mission, you gain insight into what is working and what areas may need more support. You can create goals to act as benchmarks to help further your family's legacy. These goals can look like intentionally setting aside time to spend with your children or grandchildren, passing on family traditions, or even taking your children out for coffee to catch up. Building these goals early on in your routine helps your family members better communicate their needs and foster meaningful connections. Don't know where to start? We can help. Download our Keys to Shaping Family Legacy guide to create a framework for your family to establish clear, lasting values that you can live out together ??

Are you living out your family's mission? Your mission is your family's role to play in God's plan. It shapes your daily life. For example, if part of your mission includes loving others generously, you might consider how you could love others with your words during the week, like sharing words of affirmation. If your family's mission involves serving others, volunteer together at a nonprofit in your community. If part of your mission is to share God’s word, you may want to contribute to causes that expand access to the Bible, such as through translation or ministry. Living out your family's mission is one of the most powerful ways not only to teach your children what matters most, but also to impact the world for good.

Often, our generosity journey is sidetracked by fear. Fear of giving too much and not having enough leftover for yourself. Fear of giving to the wrong charities and causes. When we surrender to fear, we believe the chaos and uncertainty within our lives is more than God can handle. We lose out on opportunities for joy that God places in our path. So how can we overcome our fear and live in joy? Take a moment. Be still. Remember that God who moves mountains with just a word and is our "ever-present?help?in trouble" is greater than your fears. As the busy holiday season begins, remember to be still, and find joy. #faithoverfear #positiveparenting #family #thesignatry #generosity #ministry #motherhood #joyfulgiving

Congratulations to our November Spotlight Employee, Nick Bartelli! Nick serves The Signatry as our Story Producer. He was selected by his peers for exemplifying The Signatry's core values of generosity, collaboration, and creativity & innovation.

Earlier this month our whole team converged on Kansas City for our annual all-hands gathering. About half of The Signatry's staff works remotely; this yearly gathering is a special opportunity to see all our colleagues in person. This year's theme was "Hearts for Generosity," celebrating the heart as important symbol in Kansas City and the heart for biblical generosity that drives our work. We volunteered at Heart to Heart International, enjoyed a well-costumed talent show, heard from our leaders, and collaborated across teams to set a vision for the coming year. Our people are the heartbeat of The Signatry. We're so thankful for the chance to work together.

Congratulations to Aric Almirola on his win of the Kansas Lottery 300 at the Kansas Speedway! His professional success in NASCAR is changing how he thinks about God, money, and generosity. Aric grew up in a blue-collar home with a focus on working hard and saving what you earned. Even as he found professional success in racing, his focus continued to be on holding on to what he received. That changed when he read Matthew 6. "I felt God pulling on my heart and saying, 'Hey, this is not all yours.' ... So I've tried to give a little bit more, and a little bit more, and every time, I end up not missing it because God still provides." The Almirola family uses a donor advised fund at The Signatry to coordinate their family giving. Watch their story: https://lnkd.in/g2vApWqH
