The vital part, the heart and soul
of christian science, is love
Mary baker eddy
At the heart of our church mission is our practice of tithing to organizations whose good works, we support both locally and around the world. We contribute ten percent of our collection to our monthly tithing recipient but more important is our support of their mission through individual and collective prayer. Through prayer requests from each organization we learn about their specific needs and challenges and often address these topics from a spiritual standpoint in our Wednesday testimony meetings.
We invite representatives from these organizations to speak to our congregation about the impact of their missions. Their informative and inspirational presentations allow us to better support them prayerfully. Several of our tithing partners were introduced to us by church members who are directly or indirectly involved with them. We love cherishing both these members and their favored public benefactors in this way!
We cherish each one of our tithing partners. We feel honored to link arms with them in support of all they are doing for humanity. They really are an extension of our church family!
Embraced:Fully
A PATHWAY TO MORAL FREEDOM...
We are tithing this month to Embraced:Fully, lending our collective and individual prayerful support to their important mission. Their Vision: A world where former inmates experience moral transformation, contribute to healing in their communities, and become pillars of society. Partnering with other organizations that share this vision, Embraced:Fully supports inmates in their moral and spiritual journey for successful reentry into society with the help of Angel Team members who assist in finding community faith-based connections, housing, employment, transportation, friendship and mentorship.
Our church family has recently had the privilege and joy of working as an Angel Team, welcoming and supporting our new member, Byron Alexander, in his ongoing and inspiringly successful return to the community.
Let the little children come
unto me…for the kingdom of
God belongs to such as these.
Matthew 19:14
