Ways you can give financially
We believe God wants us to learn how to be willing, generous and wholehearted in every part of our lives like He is. This includes our attitude towards money and giving. Churches have different understandings of this matter. In this church we believe in the principle of giving a tithe (the first 10% ) of our income and additionally gifts and offerings as we feel at peace about with God. Giving a tithe is God’s wisdom, giving us a starting point in how to honour Him in our giving and to a life free from a fear of lack; a launch pad into a life of faith in God as our provider, and a life-style of generosity.
“A tenth of the produce of the land, whether grain or fruit, is the Lord’s, and is holy.”
“Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”
