Sacificial giving is a core expression of the character of God, and therefore also of a disciple of Jesus. Giving of our finances is a vital aspect of this, especially in a culture like ours that is dominated by consumerism, and the accumulation of material wealth.
We understand that all we have is God's, which is given to us to steward wisely both as individuals and as a community.
As partners with God in the local church, we look to financially support the work of God's kingdom in various ways through;
- general offerings for our church,
- local partnerships beyond ourselves,
- support of GBC global partners, and
- strategic projects that further God's kingdom priorities.

General Offerings
General offerings support the ministries of our church, including staff costs, operation of facilities, and giving to global partners. You can see a breakdown of how this money is used in our yearly church budget.
Setting up a regular donation is the most helpful way for us to be able to manage finances so we can focus on using our shared resources for God's mission. You can set up a manual transfer to:
