GIVING YOURSELF FIRST TO THE LORD
ABCNYS REGION OFFERING 2021
And they exceeded our expectations.
They gave themselves first of all to the Lord.
(2 Corinthians 8:5)
Paul is surprised by the generosity of the churches of Macedonia as they eagerly contributed to Paul’s collection to help the church in Jerusalem. Out of their poverty they gave abundantly because “they first gave themselves to the Lord.” From earliest days, churches have cared for one another through cooperative ministry. The ABCNYS Region Offering 2021 continues that ancient tradition of churches caring for one another. Through your generosity, you care not only for your own congregation but for your sister congregations in the Region.
We take as our model these Macedonian churches who “first gave themselves to the Lord.” Once we have done that, generosity flows out of joy and gratitude.
The ABCNYS Region is funded principally by the donations given by our member churches. With your generosity and partnership we are able to provide many supportive ministries to strengthen local churches. You can help with your gifts to the Region Offering!
