GIVING

WHY WE GIVE

We believe that giving of our ‘first fruits’ is a form of worship and follows Biblical teaching to bring the first 10% of our income into the storehouse on a regular basis (Proverbs 3:9 & Malachi 3:10).  Giving at First Assembly is a voluntary action and all who come to First Assembly belong whether they are able to give or not.  In the spirit of freedom accomplished through Christ’s work on the cross, we ask that people give as they feel led.

“Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.  Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”  2 Corinthians 9:6-7 ESV

All tithes and offerings received at First Assembly fund the vision and activities of the church including our outreach and various missions partnerships.
