We are asking each family to prayerfully consider what gift they can give
until March 31, 2008, in addition to their regular giving, so that this is
so desperately needed Re-Creation Center can be built on the property God has provided. As always we do not want anyone to feel left out
if they just can't give. Your commitment to prayer is needed to help us
reach our goal of $10 million.
Ask God what He would have you give to make this vision a reality
Trust God to provide what He impresses you to give
The scriptures do not teach equal giving but equal sacrifice to accomplish
God's work
THREE WAYS TO GIVE
GIVE A CASH GIFT
Ask God for creative ways to increase your gift. You might consider cash
from savings, tax refunds, garage sales, or an extra part time job. Also
consider reducing your expenses or deferring a major purchase as a sacrifice
to God. Involve your whole family in giving a specific amount.
MAKE A PLEDGE TO GIVE UNTIL mARCH 31, 2008 The Bible teaches that spiritual maturity includes developing the habit of
regular giving. Giving the first portion of our income shows that God really
has first place in our lives. Also, you can give far more than you thought
possible when it's spread out over time. See the "My Potential Giving"
chart.
GIVE STOCKS, SECURITIES OR OTHER ASSETS Creative methods for increased giving can maximize your tax advantage. Check
with your own CPA or we have knowledgeable financial consultants who are
willing to give you input on some of the best ways to give this gift.
3 STEPS TO DETERMINE MY FAITH COMMITMENT
STEP 1: Pray
this is the first and most important step in preparing your heart to respond
to God's call to action. Ask Him what he would have you give to
help others find the peace and promise you have found in Christ. listen to
what He says.
STEP 2: Prepare to Sacrifice
God does not expect equal giving, but he does expect equal sacrifice.
Remember these are gifts above and beyond your regular tithes. Think in
terms of what you can give up in order to reach our community for Christ.
STEP 3: Expect a Miracle!
It is an awesome God we server... so trust that He will provide what He
impresses you to give, even if it's greater than the resources you can
readily identify or expect. Leave room for faith in your commitment
Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."
