GIVING
Merciful Father, we offer with joy and thanksgiving what you have first given us -- our selves, our time, and our possessions, signs of your gracious Love. Receive them for the sake of Him who offered Himself for us, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen (Offertory Prayer, Lutheran Book of Worship)
Just as we encourage people to tithe; so, do we as a congregation tithe to the mission and ministry of the Lutheran Church-Canada Synod.
