Year-End Giving
At this special time of year, many of us seek ways to help others. Giving to your church will impact lives and support the cause of Christ as we seek to help people find and follow him.
We will provide a record of your giving for tax purposes, but to be included in your 2014 giving statement, year-end contributions must be included in the offering no later than Sunday, Dec. 28 or given online or mailed to the church no later than Dec. 31 (i.e. postmarked).
You may want to consider donating appreciated assets like stocks for the tax benefits. Every dollar given is used prayerfully. Thank you for your generous giving to the cause of Christ. If you have any questions, contact Shane Griggs at sgriggs@christfellowshiphome.com or 972.547.7089.
Recurring Contributions
The online recurring contributions function is a great way to practice faithful giving. Many people who use this capability set their giving to expire at year-end. If that is the case for you, we want to offer this friendly reminder to set up a new recurring contribution for 2015. Thanks for your ongoing support of the ministries of Christ Fellowship.
At Christ Fellowship, we believe giving to Christ’s church is an act of worship, and that both our attitude toward giving and practice of giving indicates our level of spiritual maturity and commitment to Christ’s mission (Matthew 6:19-21). Faithful giving also makes us more generous overall, freeing us from the bonds of materialism, allowing us to better show Christ’s love to a watching world, and providing a platform for further spiritual growth. Giving is important to God because it is a matter of the heart; therefore, it’s important to us.
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. (Matt. 6:21)
Give Online
Online giving is provided for your convenience and as a way to facilitate faithful stewardship of the financial resources God has blessed you with. Two things to note:
- Making an electronic check contribution is much less expensive for the church than using a debit/credit card.
- We do not endorse going into debt to give to the church, so we ask that credit cards be used with caution and only if the balance will be paid before any interest charges are incurred.

How is a Christian to give?
The answer can be summarized in one sentence and three principles:
Give generously since God has generously given to you, and because you know God rewards generosity.
- Proportionate (Deuteronomy 16:17; 2 Corinthians 8:11-12)
Our giving is to be proportionate to how God has blessed us financially and materially. - Planned (2 Corinthians 9:7; 1 Corinthians 16:1-2; Proverbs 3:9-10)
We are to prayerfully plan our giving to God. - Progressive (2 Corinthians 8:7; 2 Corinthians 9:6)
Our generosity should grow over time.
We are to give generously with ‘3P’ giving!
