Your Giving supports God’s work through the church that is changing lives.
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.– Matthew 6:21
Every time you give, you join Jesus in His work of restoring our world. He loves us and is passionate about healing our brokenness and giving us new life. When you give, you not only change the lives of people in your church and community but you change your own.
Your own life is changed as your heart is directed to eternal things and faithfulness to God. The lives of people in your church are changed as it provides them with a place to belong and grow in their faith. The lives of the people in your community are changed as your church ministers to their needs and shares the Good News of Jesus.

Take a step on your generosity journey.
We want something for you, not from you. We want you to move closer to God and experience more of Him in your life. Generosity is like a journey and a person moves closer to God with each step. We want to provide resources and support as you take steps and celebrate with you along the way.
What is tithing?
God instructed people to give a tithe when He was first defining His relationship with His people (Leviticus 27:30-33). Tithing meant giving God the first 10% of whatever they received as a way to recognize that everything come from God and belongs to Him. The people of the Old Testament practiced a tithe for thousands of years. Jesus affirmed the tithe (Matthew 23:33) and the first Christians showed that this was just the beginning of their generous response to all that Jesus has done for us (Acts 4:32-25, 2 Corinthians9:6-8).
In both cases, God intended for the tithe to be the primary way that the needs of His faith community are met through the generosity of His people. We believe that tithing to the church is consistent with the generosity instructed by God, affirmed by Jesus, and practiced by the first Christians. Tithing is a great starting point to trust God and contribute to His work through the church.
