Give

There are several ways to give or partner with Living Hope to fulfill our God-given purpose and objectives as individual worshippers and as local church worshippers.  We may immediately think of giving or sharing some of the financial resources entrusted to us, which is great.  This was certainly a part of the Biblical theme of giving to a local place designated for God’s people to gather and worship together regularly.  We have several different options below that you are welcome to use to give in this way.  

Willingness
The Bible tells us that God has made you wonderfully with many abilities and skills that ultimately were given to bring God honor and worth as you serve as His representatives in this world.  You use them to contribute in the marketplace and in other areas of your life.  And God receives honor and worth from you and others when you use and share these resources to make Him known and give him credit for them in those places.

Abilities
The Bible also informs us that God has outfitted His local churches to serve him with precision.  Each member has been equipped to bring a God-given talent so that the whole church can function as it was designed.  From carpentry to music, sharing the skills or talents that you have received or acquired in your lifetime is invaluable.  To find out how to use and share the talents entrusted to you in this community check the “Serve One Another” display in the foyer to see what needs have been identified right now among the individual members and at the church building site.

Time
One of the biggest resources you can give in a community of faith is your time.  There are a lot of opportunities that don’t require a specific skill or have a financial cost but you will have to show up with a god glorifying attitude to love others (that may be resistant to your loving presence and desire).  If you would like to give your time, please contact one of the servant leaders in this local church listed in the our staff section.

Financial
We value any way you feel Spirit-led to give, whether it is through your time, abilities or willingness. We also recognize the reality of working and operating as both the church body and a church building. As with any building, we have maintenance, landscaping and projects that requires funds. As with any entity, we have partners and people that we work with relationally as well as monetarily. If you feel you have been blessed with the means to give in a financial capacity, that is an opportunity to give that we appreciate as well.
