You must each make up your own mind as to how much you should give. Don’t give reluctantly or in response to pressure. For God loves the person who gives cheerfully.
~ 2 Corinthians 9:7 NLT

Our Ministry Fund is used to cover operating expenses such as utilities, staff salaries, supplies, curriculum, equipment, cleaning, etc. It is also used to spread the Gospel throughout the world which includes; Local Missions, Missionaries, and Jubilee Missions. Your regular weekly offering supports this fund.

The Benevolent Fund provides short term help for church families who are experiencing periods of financial hardship. Administered by our Benevolence Team, gifts from this fund go to specific needs such as paying utilities, medical bills, car repairs, groceries, etc. At the team’s discretion, it can also be used for special benevolent needs that may arise throughout the world (ie: Hurricane Katrina or the Asian Tsunami.)

If you think you may need assistance from our benevolent fund, you may request an application by calling Joel Petroelje at 616.396.4324.

* We do not accept monies directed toward specific ministries or non-approved funds unless pre-approved by the Governing Board.
