Thank you for your support!
We at Rising Tide are growing in our understanding and faith in generousity as a lifestyle. Whether we are helping one of our own with a need or blessing someone outside of our congregation it rises from the heart. We believe in the principle Jesus taught of "Give and it shall be given". Whether we are providing a helping hand or giving food baskets to the needy our church people have a long history of giving to others. Whenever a need becomes known people respond from hearts that love God and love their neighbours.
"Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. Do to others as you would have them do to you."
~Luke 6:30-31
God’s Word calls us to obediently “tithe” (give 10%) of what He gives us, to do His kingdom work. “Offerings” given to God are gifts above and beyond our tithes. Tithes and offerings are vital to the health of Our Church and provide for all the areas of ministry and outreach.
OUR GOAL IS 100% PARTICIPATION in giving to the Generous Future.
That might mean being lavishly generous or simply sacrificial…like sacrificing a fast food meal once a week and giving that cost to the Generous Future fund. What you give should be decided between you and God, and ask that you give in some way from a worshipful heart.
Prayerfully consider:
2 Corinthians 9:7-8 “Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart what to give, not reluctantly of under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.”
We are asking that you prayerfully support and sacrificially give to fulfill God’s vision for the future of our Church. Come along side and be part of the next phase of our miraculous story, and prepare to be blessed.
We take 2 major offerings a year (Easter and Thankgiving) to support world missions around the world. These offerings go to our general church and help support Nazarene Missionaries
Alabaster Offering is another way we support mission work. The money collected helps build churches, clinics, schools, and pastors homes in areas too poor to ever be able to do such construction work on their own.
Locally we collect to put Christmas Food Hampers together and distribute them to needy families in or area.
