Helping Those in Need

“He who is kind to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will reward him for what he has done.”

February Giving Update 2012

How did we do in the month of February?

We were $4,845.50 short of our monthly budget.

How much does it “cost” to run the church?

In a 4-Sunday month it takes a minimum of $30.605. It allows us to pay the bills and fund a minimal amount to our ministries.

How much was the actual giving for the month?

The giving for this month was $25,759.50.

Here is a quick snapshot of this year:

Is there anything else I need to know?
If you’re someone who regularly gives to God at New Life: Thanks! Your giving makes a difference.

If you’re someone who is not yet giving: Make a decision to get involved. Take the first step toward the biblical practice of giving. You can find out more about giving here.

And for everyone: Please take time this week to pray for the finances of both our church family, and the individual families that make up New Life.

Help Us Reach Out to Our Community

Many of the people who attend New Life, first came as result of receiving a flyer in the mail. This has been an important way for us to let our community know that we’re here, and that we want to help other’s know Christ. We want to continue this practice by sending a flyer to each home within our immediate area – approximately 20,000 homes. We need your help to do this.

The cost for this mailing is around $3,000. Church finances are tight, so the only way to do this is through a special giving. We’re looking for people who can give, over and above their regular giving, to help us reach out to our community. The total cost of $3,000 breaks down to about $15 to reach 100 people. Can you help with the cost of this outreach? If so, when you make your gift, designate it to “mailer."
