Annual Giving 2025

Erin and Josh Hudson, Annual Giving 2025 Chairs

We are honored to serve as this year’s Annual Giving Chairs. Upon initially agreeing to serve, we began to really contemplate what it means to tithe. Do we put our money where our heart is? We took an inward look at our own spending habits. What we noticed were the expenses that come out each month that you don’t even think about: streaming services, telephone, internet, and, of course, the seemingly daily Amazon deliveries. Being able to afford those things is a blessing, yet none of them provide our family with even a fraction of what we receive from Christ Church.

Between Sunday worship services, children’s ministries, youth group, social events, church basketball, and on and on, so much of our time is spent at or because of Christ Church. While many of these things have registration fees associated with them, what most people don’t realize is that the church subsidizes so much of it to make it more affordable for all of us. It is so important for us to give back to this organization that gives so much.

Not only is each monetary gift essential to the operations of the church, but the actual pledging of those gifts is just as essential. Just like any non-profit entity, Christ Church must be able to budget its finances to survive. Whether you give one time a year or spread it out in smaller gifts throughout the year, know that it is so important that you pledge the amount you think you’ll be able to make, even if that pledge amount is less than what you hope or intend to give. Making an Annual Giving pledge is one of the best ways to ensure that Christ Church can continue to bless us all.

Tithes and offerings are such an important part of living out our Christian faith because, by giving, we put our love for God before our love for money. Additionally, it helps us to remember that God alone is the true source of all our blessings.
