The Faith Promise Method of Giving to Missions Is giving to Faith Promise missions right for your church? It may be if your church has a burden for world evangelization and would like to double or perhaps triple her missions giving. It is even probable that your regular offerings will go up at the same time. This isn’t some pie-in-the –sky scheme. But a proven Biblical method of financing world evangelization that works equally well in churches of all sizes and social back-grounds. Interested? Here is more information. What Faith Promise Giving is not... * Faith Promise is not a pledge. Neither cards are signed nor is an agreement made with the church or pastor. * Faith Promise is not tithing. Tithing is giving ten percent of a person’s income to the Lord. Faith Promise goes beyond tithing and trusts the Lord to supply a special offering for missions. * Faith Promise is not a love offering. Love offerings are received at specific times for specific needs. Usually these are given as one-time offerings as God burdens the hearts of His people. * Faith Promise is not prosperity theology. God does not guarantee that a person will become wealthy because he gives to missions. * Faith Promise is not unreasonable giving. Missions is the work of God and it is reasonable to expect Him to finance His work through His people. * Faith Promise is not the only method of missions giving. Many fine churches do great mission work and do not use the Faith Promise plan. But, those doing a good work, in all probability, could do even better with Faith Promise. What Faith Promise Giving Is... * Faith Promise giving is giving by the grace of God as taught in the New Testament. ( 2 Corinthians 8:1,7,8) * Faith Promise is trusting God to give though us, for the cause of world evangelization, what He would not otherwise give to us. * Faith Promise is giving as God enables. It is God’s ability, and not our own, that provides what we give. * Faith Promise is church centered and promotes the overall ministry of the church. * Faith Promise is an organized, purposeful approach to missions giving in a church. * Faith Promise involves every member in a church. Whether young or old, rich or poor, all may participate in this exciting exercise of faith in God to give to world evangelizations. How Faith Promise Giving works. 1.) In a Missions Conference the members are made aware of the needs of world wide missions and how God desires to finance it. 2.) Each member is then encouraged to pray for an amount that he will trust the Lord to provide on a regular basis. 3.) A commitment is made between the individual and God, that, if the Lord will supply, a specific amount will be given regularly through his church the coming year. 4.) That amount is placed on a commitment card, unsigned, and turned in. All of theses cards are totaled so that the church may have a general idea of the amount or mission work it can plan to budget for the coming year. The Results of Faith Promise. * Individual members and the church as a whole will experience an increased faith in God to supply the needs, not only for world evangelization, but for every area of their lives. * The church will experience an increase in her missions giving. As a result, more missionaries and mission projects can be supported. * The church will have a greater awareness of mission activity around the world. * The individual will experience the thrill and joy of knowing that they have become a real partner with the missionaries and in the work being done. Learn More About Faith Promise. If you desire to learn more about Faith Promise giving for your church, you may contact the Macedonian Missionary Service by the means listed on this brochure. The staff will be happy to give you more detailed information and recommend experienced Faith Promise speakers for your Mission Conference.
