What Do the Different Funds Mean?
When you give online or via text, you will notice different giving fund options. GFMC collects and designates funds for many different missions and groups. Below are the four most commonly used giving funds.
BUDGET OFFERINGS
This fund goes toward the annual operating budget of the church. The budget is set and approved by the Board of Administration annually.
BENEVOLENCE FUND
100% of this fund goes toward helping those in the community who are in need. Meetings are conducted, on a first-come basis, each Thursday evening with
our Pastor of Local and Global Ministries. Each year thousands
of dollars are distributed
through this fund.
OUTREACH OFFERINGS
On the first Sunday of each month a special offering is collected and then distributed to a specific mission. These missions are selected annually by our Maximum Impact Missions Team.
IMPROVEMENTS/FACILITIES
In 2022 we were thrilled to have been able to pay off the existing mortgage on our building. However, after 20 years, there are some major improvements on the horizon. This fund helps us to save for those major expenses to come.
