Your generosity creates more opportunities for others to be brought into relationship with Jesus, formed as disciples, and then sent out to transform the world.
Through your faithful giving, St. John the Baptist is able to make lasting impacts here in our local community and across the world as we work to bring more people into relationship with Jesus and the Church.
"Each must do as already determined without sadness or compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. Moreover, God is able to make every grace abundant for you, so that in all things, always having all you need, you may have an abundance for every good work."
- Corinthians 9:7-8
The purpose of giving is not to meet a legalistic requirement. Rather, Jesus teaches us to give from the heart according to our blessing. Though not required, we believe the biblical 10% tithe is a good starting point as families decide how much they are able to give.
Most importantly, God tells us that He loves a cheerful giver. He will always provide, in abundance, for our needs. We at St. John the Baptist want to create opportunities to give as He leads us and with a cheerful heart, through no obligation.
