Generous Hearts
Your Giving Making a Difference
As Christians, we know we are recipients of incredible, undeserved generosity from God. He hasn’t treated us as our sins deserve, but has poured out his mercy and kindness to us, and continues to do so every day! On top of this, he gives us all we need in life and more.
One of the ways we respond to God’s generosity is to give our money cheerfully and sacrificially to honour God and make Him known.
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. 2 Corinthians 9:7
Where does the money go?
God makes the ministries of our church possible through your time, talents, prayer and financial support. Below you can see our sources of income and expense areas for the past year.
Through your generosity, we aim to support our dedicated ministry staff, local ministry activities, global mission work, and the upkeep of our properties to ensure they remain functional and welcoming for our community, as well as cover our day-to-day operating costs.
