3. THE ABCs OF GIVING
You were made in the image of God “A”, and God is
generous “B”, so there’s something deep inside you that’s
wired for generosity “C”
A = You were created in the Image of God
“God created mankind in his own image, in the image of
God he created them; male and female he created them.”
Genesis 1:27
B = God is generous.
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only
Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have
eternal life.” John 3:16
C = We are created to be generous.

4. For those of you who have ever given anything
to this church, thank you.
For those of you who have given clothes or food
to the needy, thank you.
For those of you who support a child on the
other side of the world, thank you.
For those of you who give your time to serve
others in need, thank you.

5. FIVE THINGS HAPPEN WHEN YOU GIVE
You fulfill your purpose
You make God smile
You position yourself for God’s blessing
You gain perspective
You partner with God
When you give, you join with God in his mission
in the world.
The Board of Trustees ask that you be in prayer
with them knowing that God will provide!
