Dear Family of God at Southern Heights Church,
The Southern Heights Council would like to thank everyone who calls this church family their home for their generous giving. In support of next year’s ministries, we now begin our annual First Fruits Estimate Process.
What is “First Fruits”?
In the Old Testament God called His people to bring the first part of their harvest (First Fruits) as an offering to him (See Deuteronomy 26). First Fruits, or Tithing, is an integral part of worship.
As we plan for next year, we ask everyone to consider filling out a confidential First Fruits Estimate.
Why should I make a confidential First Fruits estimate?
We want to be good stewards, and this confidential information will help make a wise plan for the next year.
How do I make a confidential First Fruits estimate?
Take a few minutes to think about ways that God has provided for you and helped you this past year.
Spend a few minutes praying this prayer: “God, in light of who you are and what you have given me, what do you want me to give to support the ministries of my church in the coming year?” Listen for a response.
Then, in response to what you have heard from God, complete your confidential First Fruits estimate, trusting God to provide.
