Paul wrote to the church at Corinth, "On the first day of each week, you should each put aside a portion of the money you have earned..."  (1 Corinthians 16:2).  We believe it is every believer's opportunity and responsibility to give their offerings to the Lord via their local church, and that these funds fulfill our obedience to the Lord in giving Him our tithes and offerings and supporting His kingdom by the spread of the Good News of Jesus throughout the world to every nation.
