Stewardship
We are called as Christians to be good stewards of all that God has so generously given to us. Giving is an expression of faith. Our congregation values generosity, which includes gifts of our time, our talent and our treasure as we seek to grow spiritually, numerically and financially. Our generosity springs from our gratitude. Our givings reflect the principle of “equal sacrifice, not equal gifts.”
Giving to God is an act of worship and thanksgiving. God’s grace touches our hearts and lives – and those around us – as we grow into the image of the greatest giver of all. The foundation of generous giving is found in the Bible.
Give Generously
“Giving grows out of the joyous recognition that all we have comes from God. It is a response to God’s grace.”
Give Freely
“We give, not because we have to but because we want to.”
Give off the Top
“As an expression of trust in God, we give off the top of our income instead of what is left.”
Give Cheerfully
“Give, not until it hurts, but until it feels good. Giving is a joyful act. ”
Give Proportionally
“We give a percentage of what we have according to what we have been given.”
Give Regularly
“We grow in generosity when we develop the habit of regular giving.”
