GIVE

At Relevant Life Church, we believe that giving is an act of worship and a reflection of God's love and faithfulness. It’s not just about supporting the church; it’s about investing in the mission that God has called us to spreading His love, serving our community, and making a lasting impact for His Kingdom.
 

Why We Give

Generosity is at the heart of the Christian faith. The Bible teaches us that all we have is a gift from God. When we give, we are simply returning a portion of what He has entrusted to us. Whether it's our time, talents, or financial resources, God invites us to partner with Him in His work on Earth. Giving helps us:

• Support the mission: From local outreach to global missions, your generosity fuels our ministry efforts.

• Bless others: Through your giving, we meet the needs of those around us helping families in crisis, providing food for the hungry, and supporting those who are struggling.

• Grow in faith: Giving reminds us to trust God in all areas of our lives, including our finances. It’s an act of obedience and a way to acknowledge that God is our ultimate provider.

How Your Giving Makes a Difference

Every gift, big or small, has a direct impact on the work God is doing through our church. Here's how your generosity is at work:

• Ministry Support: From weekly services to special events, your giving supports the programs and ministries that bring people to Christ and help them grow in their faith.

• Outreach and Missions: Your donations help fund local and global mission efforts, from serving those in need in our community to supporting missionaries around the world.

• Church Operations: Giving helps maintain the church building, provide compensation, and cover operational costs, ensuring we can continue to serve our congregation and community.
   

Tithes and Offerings

The Bible teaches us about tithing, which is giving the first 10th of our increase to God as an act of obedience and trust. When you tithe, you acknowledge that everything you have belongs to Him. In addition to tithes, many of our church members choose to give offerings, which are gifts above and beyond the tithe. Together, these offerings support the church’s mission and ministry.
 

Scriptural Foundation for Giving

We are called to give with a cheerful heart, as the Bible says in 2 Corinthians 9:7:
"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."

We believe that giving is not just about meeting needs, but about trusting God and participating in His work on earth. Your generosity plays a vital role in spreading the message of Christ and transforming lives.
