Giving draws us closer to God<\/h1>\n

When you invest in what matters to God, you strengthen your relationship with Him.<\/p>\n

Giving grows our character<\/h1>\n

Giving helps us to better reflect the character of God. He has given us everything \u2014 not even withholding his own Son! God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten Son.<\/p>\n

Giving expresses love for people<\/h1>\n

Our giving makes it possible for people to hear the Good News of God\u2019s love for them. It also helps us provide, through our Ministry partners, critical care to the poor and those in need.<\/p>\n
