Philosophy & what gifts support
What gifts support, and how we receive them.
Confirm you follow Jesus and a clean gift, then Zelle opens.
Begin: hear the Gospel firstHow we receive gifts
We receive gifts as worship from those who follow Jesus. Give only from an honest, lawful source. Zelle is primary after the gate; email is for questions. We do not claim tax deductibility on this site unless the fellowship confirms that status for U.S. donors.
What a gift supports
- In-person fellowship gatherings: venue, hospitality, and the practical cost of meeting together in Akron
- Multimedia and sound: sound system, microphones, cameras, lighting, and the gear that lets teaching be heard in the room and shared beyond it
- Discipleship materials: study guides, books, printing, and resources used in small groups and teaching
- Free Bible teaching for anyone who can reach this site: articles, video, audio, and books
- Online discipleship groups that walk people toward maturity in Christ
- Zoom fellowship so brothers and sisters in our soft-launch regions can gather, learn, and pray with us
- Care for the poor, locally and in developing countries, remembering the charge the Jerusalem church gave Paul: to remember the poor (Galatians 2:10)
- Partnership with Christian ministries that form and send the coming generation in the life of Christ
- The tools that keep this work reachable: website, hosting, and communication
- Welcome and care at gatherings so guests can be received with dignity
- The long-term vision of a residential Discipleship House
“They only asked us to remember the poor, the very thing I also was eager to do.” (Galatians 2:10)
“Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” (2 Corinthians 9:7)
