Our purpose is to see people far from God transformed through the power of the gospel.
When we give at Heart Church, we give to this vision, trusting that God will use our generosity to make a big impact. We do this through what the Bible teaches are two key parts of giving - tithes and offerings.
At Heart Church we believe that the tithe (the first 10% of our income) belongs to God, and that this should be consistently given to the local church where we belong.
Offerings
Our offerings are what we give over and above our tithe. We give offerings in a spirit of generosity, trusting that God will multiply these ‘seeds sown’ in our lives and the lives of others.
We know from the Bible that obeying God in giving is key to a blessed life! So we truly thank God for your obedience and generosity.
