At Atlantic Community Church we believe passionately that “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” We know that people who cultivate a habit of giving in their lives are without a doubt happier people. We have seen that! Money and possessions can have a powerful grip on usand when we make a habit of giving money and stuff away we release that grip. It is a deliberate step against the materialism that has a grip on so many people.
We also believe that God intends for those who follow him to return to him a percentage of what he has blessed us with. It simply becomes an offering of love and thanksgiving for what God has done for us. God doesn’t need our money, but we need to give it back to him for our sake and for the health of our spirit. Beyond that God asks us to give generously to his church and he promises to pour out his blessing on those who choose to be obedient in that manner.
With the advent of so much technology today there are many ways that people can give money away. Our counsel at ACC: Be very careful however before you do! It is very important that when we give we know that the money we have given will be used in the very best ways possible.
You can be assured that any donations given to ACC we will used with complete integrity and accountability. They will be used to build a local church that is committed to have a prevailing presence in its community. The donations will be used to make a difference in the lives of those who attend of course. But more importantly gifts will be used to make an investment into the community and to make a better life for many folks who will probably never even enter the doors of the church. That’s what God’s Church is really all about.
So if you choose to use this online option for making a donation we thank you! Be assured your gifts will be used well!
