ONLINE GIVING

God provides for the ministry of our church through your tithes and offerings and your gifts are honored with faithful stewardship, ethical business practices, and accountability to our lead team and church. It’s more than keeping the lights on and the gears turning; it’s about personal worship to God and handing Him back what He already owns… and it’s about lives changing through the transformative power of the Gospel in our region and beyond.

Thank you for your support!

For God’s Children International’s motto is:  “Providing hope, dignity and love in Jesus’ name.”  It is FGCI’s mission to replace despair with the hope of Christ, humiliation with the dignity of Christ, and indifference with the love of Jesus Christ.  “We proclaim him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ.  To this end (we) labor, struggling with all his energy, which so powerfully works in (us)” (Colossians 1: 28, 29 NIV).

 

For God’s Children International exists to serve abandoned, suffering, poor and marginalized children, by caring for their physical and spiritual needs.  “For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me . . . I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me”  (Matthew 25:35, 36 & 40b NIV).  Above all, we desire to serve and glorify God and to share the Good News of His Son Jesus Christ with a hurting world in need of a Savior.
