GIVE TO FAMILY OF CHRIST

We give as a response to the gift of mercy we've received from God through Jesus. We don’t give out of obligation or to earn God’s favor—we give as an outpouring of a heart that worships Jesus. Giving is an act of worship that pleases God and increases our faith. As we give generously, our lives are transformed to look more like Jesus. It teaches us to trust God and submit everything to Him because everything we have comes from Him. When we give generously, God is glorified, our hearts are transformed, and lives are changed in Tampa and around the world.

As a church, we deeply value the ways in which we steward our finances. Every dollar spent is done for the flourishing of God’s kingdom and the mission He’s called us to. Sometimes that means spending money to keep the lights on in our school & office and other times it means sending financial support to our goers overseas. We care deeply about the “why” behind every dollar we spend because we want to steward each dollar in a way that advances God’s kingdom.

We recommend setting up recurring gifts through one of the ways below! These recurring gifts help our church wisely plan for the use of resources and manage cash balances. If you set up recurring giving, you’ll receive an email confirmation for each gift that helps you keep track of your gifts and will serve as a reminder of a worshipful and faithful act!

Giving appreciated securities like stock or mutual funds often allows you to maximize your giving!

While selling a security could result in a capital gains tax liability, giving appreciated stock directly to the church could help you avoid that tax.**

If you'd like more information about giving stock or mutual funds, please email finance@familyofchrist.org.

**As always, please consult with a tax professional or financial advisor to see if this could be a good way to give for you.
