Why Do We Give?

Giving from the heart is part of living out our faith. When you join this church, you commit to supporting it through your prayers, presence, gifts, service, and witness. Each of these commitments matters—not just for the church, but for you. Every act of generosity, whether out of love or obedience, has the power to change lives—both in our community and around the world.


Here's how your contribution helps:

  • Supporting Our Ministries

    Your donations enable us to run various programs and ministries that uplift and support individuals and families in our community.

  • Empowering Outreach

    We believe in reaching out to those in need, both locally and globally.

  • Equipping Our Place Of Worship

    Your contributions help maintain our church building as a welcoming and safe space for worship, prayer, and community events.
