"Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion,
Why we give.
God is generous and so he calls us to be as well. What we do with what God has given us shows the world where our hearts are at and helps proclaim the gospel. We want to glorify God with every area of our lives, and that includes what we do with our finances.
Where do my gifts go?
To the ends of the earth:
As you give, immediately 16.5% of your gifts go to the Cooperative Program. The Cooperative Program is Southern Baptists’ unified plan of giving through which cooperating Southern Baptist churches give a percentage of their undesignated receipts in support of their respective state convention and the Southern Baptist Convention missions and ministries. The Cooperative Program supports missions and missionaries around the world.
The bottom line is this: people around the world hear the gospel!

To the community:
On top of the 16.5% of our budget that we give to the SBC Cooperative Program, we also give another 2.5% of our budget to Southeast Alabama Baptist Association (SABA). SABA’s mission is to strengthen healthy churches, facilitate missions and ministry, and share the gospel by meeting community needs. SABA helps local churches work together to accomplish kingdom work in the local community. Your gifts help support local ministry in the community.
To the local church:
We believe that change comes from the power of the Word of God and the God that inspired them. Giving supports our physical location, digital content, and staff members so that we can always be a church that impacts every generation for the gospel of Jesus Christ.
