We are blessed to be a blessing

We are blessed to be a blessing (Genesis 12:2). Giving is a principle that is taught throughout the Bible. When we give through our tithes and offerings, we are worshiping God in a tangible way. We acknowledge God’s existence in this life as Creator (Genesis 1 and 2) and that everything is God’s (Haggai 2:8, Job 41:11). We are lining-up our financial lives with God’s direction for abundant life (Matthew 6:33). We are following the example established by our adopted father Abraham (Galatians 3:7) when he gave a tenth of everything he had to Melchizedek (Genesis 14:18-20). Tithing is an act of faith (Leviticus 27:30-33, Deuteronomy 14:22).

By putting God first in ones financial life you enable ministry and outreach to positively impact our community. We are called to live out the gospel by meeting community needs through; feeding, clothing, pre-school, Sunday school, youth and adult programming, and many others ways. Through your tithes and offerings we fulfill our mission as a faith community to “spread the love and message of Christ,” modeling our actions after the first churches (Acts). Lastly, I believe, we open the door of God’s blessings (Malachi 3:8-10, Proverbs 3:9-10). I and many others can testify to the blessings that come from tithing. Thank you for being a part of this ministry!
