The Give to the King Offering is a special one-off gift that we present to the Lord, over and above what we are already giving regularly. Over time, this special annual collection has served many different purposes. It was launched out of desperation when our fledgling church was struggling financially, and it saw us through those challenging years. By then, although there was no longer any need for it, members had discovered that giving sacrificially was a joy and a blessing, and so continued to support it enthusiastically, steadily increasing the amount collected annually.
