tithes & Offerings
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
- Matthew 6:21
Why we give.
God is generous and He gives to us richly! He created us in His image, and so that means we were designed to be givers. The scriptures tell us that God loves a joyful giver, meaning full of faith and even giddy over giving. That's faith! It shows that we truly trust Him and expect Him to provide for us well always.
What we do with what God has given us shows the world where our hearts are at and helps proclaim the gospel. We honor God in our giving as we present our tithes and give him offerings from the joy in our hearts. We want to glorify God with every area of our lives, and that certainly includes what we do with our finances.
Jesus taught a LOT on giving, and it has been said that there is no greater demonstration of our faith than in our giving. We choose to be people of great faith!

Ways To Give
Give Online
One of the main ways people give in church today is through online giving. It's fast and easy, and allows us to always present to God what we want and when we want to. We can give to God from the other side of the Earth! How cool is that?!
Give In Person
Giving in person may mean using an envelope, in which you can include cash, check or card information for credit/debit cards. Many prefer to give this way. Envelopes are always available in our reception area.
Mail Your Tithes/Offering
If you prefer to mail your offering, just place it in the IPF offering envelope with a stamp and send it off.
