Giving
Giving is both an act of obedience and an act of worship. God uses our time, talents and resources to enable us to create environments that encourage people to come inside to hear the Word, and support outreach ministries that take the Word outside the walls.
Why do we give?
Giving is an act of obedience…a choice we make to follow God’s instruction for us. God uses those resources for His glory and to further His Kingdom. It is also an act of worship…from a heart surrendered to Christ.
At Christ Universal Gospel Ministries we remind ourselves frequently that we don’t need anything from you. We want something for you. And God certainly doesn’t need anything from us. God always honours and blesses obedience. But we don’t give to get! We give out of our need to act on our faith in Christ.
Ways we give…
- Tithe – God calls us to give 10% of the “first fruits” to the “storehouse”, that is the church to which you have been called to serve. Your financial support helps to create the quality environment, ministries, and discipleship tools you, your family, and our community enjoy on a weekly basis.
- Offerings – Occasionally, God calls us to make sacrificial offerings above our tithe. These offerings are usually designated to a specific capital steward campaign, ministry or outreach, or perhaps to help meet the needs of a specific person. In addition to those needs being met, your obedient generosity many times also increases the faith of the recipient!
- Outreach – Christ Universal Gospel Ministries believes that we, as a church body, have been called to give. Part of the general receipts received is given to local and global outreach ministries. This support allows us to partner with local leaders as we help them lead their communities into a growing relationship with Christ.
