GIVE & SERVE


GENEROUS GIVING AND LIVING AT FIRST COVENANT

We believe that how we live shows what we believe. Every day we have the opportunity to give and live generously out of a direct response to the generous and extravagant love of Christ in our lives. When we each do our part, we make a difference together here in our community, and around the world to further the kinship of God. Whole life generosity is a way of living an overflowing life released to God for others. At the center is Jesus, the model and motivator of whole life generosity. 


WHAT DOES GENEROSITY AT FIRST COVENANT LOOK LIKE?

Monetary Giving: Donating or giving my financial resources to support the mission and vision of First Covenant Church (FCC) (see middle panel).


Service & Volunteering: Opportunities abound to give back through volunteerism at FCC. From seasonal serving in our buildings and grounds, to serving meals, being a part of the After School Program, helping with a musical, and more. Some of our ongoing volunteer opportunities can be found in our "Give & Serve" sub-menus.


Hospitality: Hospitality looks like openness, welcome, acceptance, and kindness toward one another. Talking to someone you don't know at fellowship time. It's parking in the back of the parking lot so others can park close. It's sitting in the middle of the pew so that people can easily find spots to sit.


Gifts: These non-financial gifts show up when the people of FCC respond to the Holy Spirit's nudges and say "yes"!


Emotional & Relational Support: "Being there" for someone looks like listening and compassion, praying for one another, supporting one another, sharing life together through the joys and sorrows together.
