WHAT DO YOU WANT TO GIVE TODAY?
You can give by reason, or you can give by revelation. To give by reason is to figure out reasonably what you think you can give, and that doesn’t require any faith at all. GIVE BY FAITH!
IF YOU ARE GIVING BY CASH OR A CHECK, OFFERING ENVELOPES ARE BY THE FRONT DOOR.
We Need a Few Helping Hands at Church!
Faith Global Ministry is looking for volunteers to help with a few simple but important tasks:

- Preparing communion before service
- Helping with sound and video during worship
If you’re willing to serve in one of these areas, please reach out—we’d love to have you on the team!
