How you can play your part
1. The Service:
Sunday 23rd February is this year’s Vision Sunday. During this service, we will have a special Vision Offering, which is:
- over and above our normal giving (tithes and offerings)
- towards the ongoing outworking of LCC’s vision and priorities explained in the Vision 2025 Booklet.
- ordinarily now the only time of year we will ask you to consider giving to a specific cause.
This will be a key part in helping us to develop our discipleship, increase our influence, move into mission and progress our property in this season.
On the day, you can make a "one-off" donation, or a "faith pledge" (to be paid over the next 12 months), or a combination of the two. If at this time you cannot give financially, then you can still come forward with your “heart” and even present a written prayer request on the day as you stand with the wider faith family.
Our time together, as in the past few years, will be a real celebration. We invite you to make a priority of attending, but if you’re away, it would be helpful if you would submit your pledge before 23rd February, by completing our online pledge form below.
2. Approach - We invite you to:
PRAY: Come before the Lord and ask Him what He would like you to give over the next 12 months.
PREPARE: Look at your finances, but you may also need to take a step of faith and obedience. Please do not go into debt.
PLEDGE: Come forward as an individual or family to offer your faith pledge or gift before God.
We ask you to pray for yourself and others at this vital time. Each of our collective obedience in this offering, really does make all the difference in accelerating the vision the Lord has for LCC.
We would love people of all ages to be involved, including children and young people - how can YOU play your part this year?
3. Ways to Give:
