Matthew 4:19: “And he said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.””
Give towards Missions Through Faith Promise
Along with prayer, Faith Promise giving is your most direct route to actively making a difference in world missions. A Faith Promise pledge is a prayerful vow to give a specific amount above your normal tithe which will go directly to the Missions Ministry.
We have faith that God would do the miraculous in the hearts of people. We ask you to ask God, in faith, to give you something unexpected that you can give to Missions. Your role is to ask, watch, and then give some or all of it to Missions, becoming a crucial part of the extraordinary work God is accomplishing through our church’s global outreach efforts.
