Giving and Tithing

You can give online to FFMC and its ministries.

Whether it is $5 or $50 or $500 or more, that we give to the church — Why do we do it?

  • Is it like membership dues?
  • From habit and heritage?
  • Out of strong feelings in response to need?
  • Will I get something back? (God will bless me if I give)

There is probably some of all the above in our giving.
But how about these as reasons to give?

  • I’ve joyfully encountered Jesus.
  • I am a committed follower of Jesus.
  • All I have belongs to God.
  • Giving arises naturally out of love and devotion, and a desire to be a good steward of what is God’s.

At FFMC we hope that these are the deepest reasons we give. But if we’re wise, we’ll carefully consider what we give to.


OUR STEWARDSHIP

Huge thanks to the many who responded to the special Ministry Operating Fund appeal! This excellent month enabled us to reduce the operational deficit. At the same time, FFMC continues to need your regular, ongoing support as we work to eliminate the deficit by year end. “Operations” may not seem very appealing to many givers. However, it is essential for all the other ministries. Thanks for your stewardship!

We are a worshiping community, extending Christ's invitation to become and live as His disciples.
