IMPACT Easter Offering
On Easter Sunday -- April 4th -- we are taking up a special IMPACT offering. This offering will be given to our Missions Team to split 50/50 between our local IMPACT opportunities and with Children of the Nations.
HOW YOU CAN MAKE AN IMPACT?
1. Sell Some Stuff. We all have things setting around in our garage or storage unit that could be sold in a garage sale or on eBay! You could donate also donate cars, rental houses, or even stocks. Like the early church did in Acts--bring the proceeds to the church on Easter and make an IMPACT!
2. Stop Monthly Fees. We all have things being charged monthly to our credit or debit card that we don't use. Cancel or downgrade your Netflix, Health club, internet, phone, wine of the month club, or season tickets. Give your savings on Easter and make an IMPACT!
3. Invest. Like in the Parable of the Talents, take $20 or $50 or $100 and invest it (I don't mean play the stock market or betting it all on black). Buy yarn and knit a sweater and sell it. Have your kids operate a lemonade stand. Take a little bit of money and combine a skill that you have and give the proceeds on Easter to make an IMPACT!
4. Be a Priority, Percentage Giver. We have the opportunity to make an IMPACT every week with our regular giving. Pick a percentage and automatically give it--paycheck after paycheck--off of the top.
