Giving at oakwood

Our desire to give is prompted by the Holy Spirit. Our practice of sacrificial giving illustrates the sacrifice Jesus made for us. Our consistency in giving declares that we are managers of what God has given to us and that we truly trust Him. And, as we give, we are reminded of what Jesus said, "It is more blessed to give than to receive." Our giving should be: 

• Personal -- each one is to give responsibly
• Planned -- each one is to make giving a priority (not leftovers)
• Proportional -- each one is to give proportionally of his/her income
• Pleasing -- each one is to give from a cheerful (literally hilarious) heart

Giving Statements can be sent quarterly to provide information for tax purposes. The Financial Secretary is the only person who has access to contribution records. It is the policy of our pastors and elders to receive no reporting of individual giving. We respect giving as a personal response to God’s blessing and the individual’s commitment to God. We also recognize that the joy and challenge of giving is a process developed through the ministry of the Holy Spirit.
