"Bring all the tithes into the storehouse so there will be enough food in my Temple. If you do,” says the LORD of Heaven’s Armies, “I will open the windows of heaven for you. I will pour out a blessing so great you won’t have enough room to take it in! Try it! Put me to the test!"

Malachi 3:10 (NLT)

Why We Give

God is generous and so he calls us to be as well. What we do with what God has given us shows the world where our hearts are at and helps proclaim the gospel. We want to glorify God with every area of our lives, and that includes what we do with our finances. 

As a people who follow the Lord Jesus, we give both of ourselves and what He has blessed us with as a means of furthering His Kingdom. By giving, you allow us to continue building families, teaching the Bible and loving our neighbors. We offer a several ways for you to do this.

What is the difference between a tithe and an offering?

The word “tithe” means one tenth. So when you tithe, you give one tenth or 10% of your earnings. Tithing (10%) is the starting point of giving. Offerings are gifts given above the tithe. God has blessed some people financially who are able to give substantially more than 10% and still live comfortably.

What are my giving dollars used for?

Your gifts are used to fund God’s work through the ministry of the church. We do this through our weekend services for adults and kids, and through our support of local and world wide missionaries.We can accomplish more together than separate.

Does your church have a budget?

Yes. Our budget each year is determined based on the goals and objectives of each ministry area and voted on by the church.

What payment method options can I choose from?

How often will payments be pulled from my account?

How do I participate in the weekend offering if I use the automated giving program?
