Giving

A Generous Church

One of the major complaints people often express about church life is that the church is after everybody’s money.  We really don’t want that to be the thought around New Hope.  Giving is a big part of being a follower of Jesus, but it’s not all about money.  Giving to God through His church is an expression of our love and our trust in God.  The truth is, we really do put our money where our mouth is.

In an effort to demonstrate that New Hope is not just after people’s money, we don’t actually pass offering plates during our Sunday services.  There are places for regular attendees to place their offerings at the Info Centre in our lobby.  Other people may choose to give offerings, automatic withdrawals, or online giving.

As part of being a generous church, New Hope gave $217,676 to missions locally and around the world in 2025, with $37,600 to eleven organizations in our community that were making a big impact in people's lives. 

Why Give

Giving is one way we worship God and recognize that everything we have ultimately comes from Him. Scripture teaches us to give generously, willingly, and with joyful hearts—not out of pressure or obligation, but as an expression of our trust in God. “God loves a cheerful giver.” (2 Corinthians 9:7)

When we give, we're not simply supporting a church—we're investing in what God is doing through His people. Our generosity helps create spaces where people can encounter Jesus, grow in their faith, care for one another, and serve our community.

Giving for the Future

We believe God has more ahead for New Hope, and we want to be faithful with what He has entrusted to us today while preparing for what comes next. Giving toward the future allows us to invest in our facilities, ministries, technology, and other opportunities that help us serve our church family and reach more people with the Gospel.

Throughout Scripture, we see God's people make sacrifices today that create opportunities for generations to come. “One generation commends your works to another; they tell of your mighty acts.” (Psalm 145:4) When we give for the future, we're helping build something that can continue to point people to Jesus long after we're gone.

Giving for missions

Jesus calls us to take the Gospel beyond ourselves, reaching people both in our own community and around the world. Through our giving, New Hope supports mission partners who are sharing the love of Jesus, caring for people in need, strengthening families, developing leaders, and building the Church in communities around the world.

This reflects Jesus' command to “go and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19). When you give to missions, you become part of that work—helping support ministries that are bringing the hope of Jesus to people and places we may never reach ourselves.
