What the Bible tells us about giving
The Bible refers to using 10% of your income as a basis for knowing how much to give. That’s called tithing. Why? Jesus said this, “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” (Matthew 6:21). If we become generous with our money, God promises our heart will follow. Additionally, 2 Corinthians 9 tells us “each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give; not reluctantly or under compulsions, for God loves a cheerful giver.” In other words, giving is part of God’s design for Christ-followers.
Designated Giving Policy Waterloo Pentecostal Assembly adopts this policy in order to comply with Trust Law & CRA guidelines in regards to designated giving. WPA will ensure that gifts or donations it receives which are designated for the support of a particular ministry is used solely for the purpose it was intended.
Good points for you know
- All contributions are made unconditionally and without personal benefit to the donor.
- The contribution is made to or for the use of the church.
- No personal service is to be considered as a charitable gift.
- A donation becomes a gift to the charity when it passes hands from the donor to the church and can not be returned to the donor unless it does not fit into this policy.
- Givers are encouraged to support the general offering of the church with their regular tithes and offerings.
- The church will receive designated giving only to areas which are board approved or are already part of the churches approved budget.
- Each restricted contribution designated towards such an approved program or project will be used as designated with the understanding that when the need for such a program or project has been met, or cannot be completed for any reason determined by the organization, the remaining restricted contributions will be used where needed most.
