GIVING
Tithing:
What if your money isn’t really yours but is a gift from God? The Bible tells us that everything we have is a gift from God, and tithing (giving 10% of one’s income to God) is our grateful response--giving back to God a small portion of all that God has given us. Tithing teaches us to put God first in our lives and surrender all that we are and all that we have to God. Your giving also determines what St. John's can plan for and do during the year. Your faithful and generous gifts support worship and all our other ministries that touch the lives of children, families, and those in need of Christ’s love through us.
Beyond the Tithe:
"Beyond the tithe" is anything you give beyond 10% of your income. God says In Malachi 3:10, "Go ahead. I dare you. See if you can out-give me". This is a chance for you to be extravagantly generous. You can give additional gifts to the tithe fund or give to the Building Fund. Go ahead, give and experience God's abundant blessings!
