Giving
Your gifts and donations are much appreciated
We all have the ability to respond generously and gratefully to God. We are asking that you prayerfully consider over the next few weeks what portion of God’s gifts to you that you are willing to share in the ministry of Christ. Taking a few moments to estimate your anticipated giving is of intense benefit to your church and to you, as you exercise trust in God and set goals for your proportionate giving.
You can also call the church office at (318) 357-8296 to submit your Estimate of Giving. Email office@fumcnla.org with any questions.
We are asking for your help in completing a much-needed revitalization of our current facilities. Over the years, deferred maintenance and aging equipment has resulted in a deterioration that has impacted our regular activities and prohibited potential ministry. Please prayerfully consider what you might be able to donate above your regular giving over the next two years. These extra mile funds will be designated toward facilities revitalizaton and finance the air conditioning replacements, structural repairs (such as roof, water damage, fencing and access repairs) and priority renovations (including youth areas, energy efficient windows and technology upgrades).
God provides for the ministry of our church through your tithes and offerings and your gifts are honored with faithful stewardship, ethical business practices, and accountability. It’s more than keeping the lights on and the gears turning; it’s about personal worship to God and handing Him back what He already owns…and it’s about lives changing through the transformative power of the Gospel in our region and beyond.
But who am I, and who are my people, that we should be able to give as generously as this? Everything comes from you, and we have given you only what comes from your hand.”
~1 Chronicles 29:14
