Today’s offering: Our Local Church Budget
This is the part of our worship where we give to God. This time of year we reflect on all that He has given to us. Imagine, God coming to this world as a human to live among us. Living, loving and giving, even unto death. He continues to give us so much and more.
You might ask, “what can I give to God, who owns everything, and who needs nothing?” “What would He want from me?” To those questions, God would say, “love me with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind and with all your strength.” (NIV Mark 12:30)
One way we can show God how much we love Him is to bring to him tithes and offerings. All of us, as Christ’s body, can take part in this act of worship. Our offerings today are for our local church, the place we learn and practice love for God and our community. Thank you in advance for your generous gifts. May God richly bless you and keep you, today and always.
Let’s pray, “Lord, thank you for coming to this world, living a life that made a difference and showing us how to give. These tithes and offerings have been prepared for this gathering of worship as a gift to You to tell You just how much we love You. We want to love You with all our heart, soul, mind and strength. Please accept and bless these gifts from our hearts to Yours. We pray this prayer in the name of Jesus, our Lord, Amen.”
