GIVE
Investing in the Lord’s work is not something God wants from us, but for us! The New Testament does not require a percentage amount, but a willing spirit. The principles of willingness and cheerfulness are discovered in the Apostle Paul’s challenge to the Corinthians to give just as he purposed in his heart; not grudgingly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver (2 Corinthians 9:7).

ABOUT GIVING
The ministry of The Shepherd’s Church is funded by the generous and sacrificial gifts of God’s people. We are committed to honoring God’s provision by exercising wise and faithful stewardship, ethical business practices and integrity in all of our dealings.
We take this course so that no one should blame us about this generous gift
that is being administered by us, for we aim at what is honorable
not only in the Lord’s sight but also in the sight of man.
(2 Corinthians 8:20-21 ESV)
HOW WE USE YOUR GIFTS
Ministry Fund
The Ministry Fund is how we support all of the ongoing ministries of the church. This fund pays the staff, supports all of the ministry budgets, pays the mortgage and utilities, supports our global workers and is the primary means by which our ministry is supported. As you prayerfully consider your financial support to Lord’s work at The Shepherd’s Church, this is where your regular giving goes. Support of the other funds would be giving that is above and beyond your regular giving as the Lord enables you to give more.
Debt Reduction
The Debt Reduction Fund is an opportunity for you to accelerate the pace at which our debt is eliminated. While the base mortgage is paid from the Ministry Fund, all gifts to the Debt Reduction Fund go directly toward making additional debt payments.
Grace Promise
Grace Promise giving allows our church to financially support gospel-impacting projects around the world, plant and equip churches throughout the USA via the Shepherds Network (TSN), and provide administrative support through Shepherds International (SI) for global workers sent from The Shepherd’s Church. LEARN MORE ABOUT TSN AND SI.
ANNUAL REPORT 2023
2023 was truly an exciting year as we watched the Lord bring significant growth in attendance, financial stability, new partnerships with local and global ministry opportunities, and key initiatives that made our ministry more effective here at home — and beyond.
