GIVING
You are part of something incredible!
By God’s grace and power, great things are constantly happening in and through Lifespring Church. You can be a part of all this in a variety of ways, including through your worship of financial giving. The mission of the local church moves forward through prayer and serving, of course, but also through our collective financial giving.
In 2 Corinthians 8:7, after mentioning several characteristics that Christ-followers are to grow in, the Apostle Paul writes, “...see that you also excel in this grace of giving.”
God wants us to grow in generosity; especially in giving toward the mission of the local church.
We believe that giving is an act of worship that comes out of a willing & cheerful heart, not from pressure or manipulation.
As part of the church family, we all get to share in meaningful ministry and mission through our financial giving.
It’s a privilege God makes possible for us.

“Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”
2 Corinthians 9:6-7
How can we give cheerfully and generously?
We can give cheerfully and generously by cultivating a heart attitude that is willing and eager to provide for the needs of others. This kind of giving is not done out of obligation or compulsion but out of a genuine desire to bless and support those around us. It involves being thankful for what we have and recognizing that everything we possess ultimately belongs to God.
Cheerful and generous giving also involves trusting in God’s provision and believing that He will supply all our needs as we give sacrificially. When we give with a joyful heart, not only are the practical needs of others being met, but we are also sowing seeds of blessing that will result in a harvest of spiritual growth and abundance for both the giver and the receiver. Giving cheerfully and generously ultimately reflects our love for God and our commitment to following His example of selfless love and generosity towards others.
When you give financially to Lifespring Church, it all belongs to God. He has trusted the Church as financial stewards to see people fulfill God’s purposes for their lives and to obey the Great Commandment as well as doing His Great Commission. This is how Lifespring Church can love the people of Sault Ste Marie in relationship with Jesus Christ and give away to the world what God has given us.
Thank you for your Generosity.
May God bless the gift and the giver.
In Jesus’ Name.
Amen
