Why We Give
Our mission is entirely supported through the faithful giving of our congregation. Each week we remind our members and friends of the teachings of the Apostle Paul that God loves a cheerful giver, which is why we always want to create opportunities to give of our resources as God leads us. There is zero obligation to give, but rather an open path to respond in gratitude to the One who gives us everything.
It is because of the generosity and faithfulness of our members and friends that we are able to see lives transformed as we learn together what it means to Love God, Love Everybody both here in Austin and around the world. We invite our members to give as a response to the gift of mercy and grace they’ve received from God through Jesus.
Giving is an act of worship that draws us closer to God and increases our faith. As we give generously, our lives are transformed to look more like Jesus.
