At St. Luke’s, we believe giving is good for the soul.  We live in a world where many people are focused on their own needs.  When we look beyond our own situation and see the needs in the world around us, our perspective is different.  We believe that generosity and giving helps us to grow in our walk with God and make a difference in our community and world.

The amount you give is between you and God.  We encourage “tithing,” which means giving 10% of your income to further the ministry of Christ.  We encourage every family to pray about what gifts you will give to help St. Luke’s accomplish the mission of Sharing God’s Love and Bringing Hope to the World.

At St. Luke’s, we ask every member family to make an annual financial commitment.  The reason for this request is simple: we will only commit to spend what the family of faith commits to give.  When each family makes a commitment, we are able to make plans for ministry and mission that will fit within our means.  We can always dream big dreams, but we will only make plans when we can underwrite them financially.

In the Old Testament we read about the tithe in Leviticus 27:30 – “A tithe of everything from the land, whether grain from the soil or fruit from the trees, belongs to the Lord; it is holy to the Lord.”  In this way, the “tithe” represents our giving to God from the first 10% of whatever we receive.  In the New Testament, the focus is less on a percentage and more on the heart, as expressed in 2 Corinthians 9:7 – “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.”  We encourage every member to seek God’s guidance in how you will give to the church.

We are committed to making sure every gift makes a difference! When you give to support the general operations of the church, your support provides for:

• Staff (administration, ministry, and programming)
• Facility and Operations (utilities, insurance, and maintenance)
• Programs (worship, children, and youth)
• Missions (more than 50 different local and worldwide ministries)

Many members also choose to make designated gifts that help underwrite specific ministry areas such as Arts, El Sistema, Meals on Wheels, the St. Luke’s Foundation, and many others.
