Your Giving Makes A Difference
Why We Give
Tithe
When you tithe, you are trusting God with your finances.
Tithing is a biblical principal. In Malachi 3:10, the bible talks
about giving our first and our best to God, and He will bless
the rest. A tithe is giving 10% of your income and trusting God to provide abundantly for you and your family when you put him first in your finances.
​
"Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this," says the Lord Almighty, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will be not room enough to store it." Malachi 3:10 NIV
Generosity
Your generosity helps us build lives, families and futures!
God calls us to be good stewards of everything that He has given us. As followers of Christ, It is our responsibility to steward God’s money with excellence and generosity. Our mission at TC is to build lives, families, and futures, and the resources given by our church family and partners are used to see our mission continue and reach more people with a message of hope that we find in Jesus!
