Stewardship

Why give money to your church?
Giving requires the highest standard of personal integrity and discipline. Giving is not a casual or occasional thing. In 2 Corinthians 8-9, the Bible teaches we are to give willingly, generously, and cheerfully. And our pattern should reflect a regular and systematic plan. In Malachi 3:10, we learn God's standard of the tithe or first tenth being set apart in all of our earnings as a gift to God. Through our tithes and offerings, we prove trustworthy in the stewardship of all God has provided for us.

Where do the monies I give go?
Our church budgets funds for ministries, personnel, administration, facilities and various mission projects. A detailed disbursement of monies within our church and outside of church is in our church budget and is a matter of public record (you can obtain a copy of the budget at the church office).
