FAQs
Q: Why give?
A: Financially giving to your local church helps fulfil the great commission of taking the Gospel to the world.
​
Q: What does my giving do?
A: We are not about making money and we do not charge for any of our ministry activities. There are however all kinds of costs associated with effectively operating a church from purchasing quality resources to heating to donations to missions.
Q: How much should I give?
A: In 2 Corinthians 9:7 every believer gave as much as the Lord laid on their hearts. It is a matter between you and the Lord. However, a good place to begin is to give 10% of your income to your local Church and you could support other ministries on top of that. It's best to give as soon as soon as you can each time you receive.
