Giving

Let us remember the joy of giving and the blessings it brings to both the giver and the receiver. Tithe offering is a duty of all Christians. By giving, we honour God and fulfill His work through our church. May God bless the offering we willingly give. For more details on how you can give, please visit our church website: https://holywordchurch.org.nz/en/giving.


Prayer Items for this week:

  • As we reflect on the message we heard this morning, pray that we would respond to God with humble and willing hearts, trusting Him and obeying His call in our lives.

  • Pray that God will help us grow spiritually and in numbers, invest faithfully in youth and children, and build a welcoming and loving community that reflects Christ’s heart.

  • Continue to pray for Steve as he undergoes chemotherapy and targeted therapy. Ask the Lord to make the treatment effective, reduce side effects, preserve his strength and peace, and sustain him and his family with hope and grace.
