Put God First

Put God First

Giving Draws Us Closer to God. When you invest in what matters to God, you strengthen your relationship with Him.

Giving Grows Our Character

Giving helps us to better reflect the character of God. He has given us everything — not even withholding his own Son! God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten Son.

Giving Expresses Love for People Our giving makes it possible for people to hear the Good News of God’s love for them. It also helps us provide, through our Ministry partners, critical care to the poor and those in need.

First Fruits

St. Paul asks us, “What have you that you did not receive?” (1 Corinthians 4:7)

Everything we have and are is a gift. Our Christian life is a response to the God who is the giver of all these gifts. We respond to Him by putting God First. This is true of our finances, our time, and our talents. God dares us to try to outdo Him in showing generosity. Each of us has been entrusted with a unique set of gifts from the Lord. These gifts are not to be hoarded, but to be used wisely to build his kingdom. Each of us is asked to reflect upon our gifts and blessings.
