In all this I have given you an example that by such work we must support the weak, remembering the words of the Lord Jesus, for he himself said, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” (Acts 20:35)
Proportionate Giving is related to Joyful Giving. We encourage congregants to give a proportion of their income to the ministry of the church. In the Old Testament, the tithe-or ten percent of one’s income is the obligatory proportionate gift. In the New Testament, Jesus never advocates tithing. Instead, Jesus challenges us to be generous in all that we do. In Luke’s Gospel, we learn that “much is required of the person to whom much is given; much more is required from the person to whom more is given” (12:48)
Would you like to increase your monthly giving for the year 2024?
Is Preauthorized Giving (PAR) direct deposit something you would consider?
Would you like to increase your monthly PAR amount?
Is there a specific ministry you would like to support?
