Deuteronomy 14:23 says, “The purpose of tithing is to teach you always to put God first in your lives.”
There is now a YOUTH TITHINGS basket in front of the altar. While the ushers are passing the collection basket at the pews, we ask the parents to send their children to the basket at the altar to place their donations. Let the kiddos have fun with it. Give them a bunch of coins so it’s loud & noisy when they drop it into the basket!
It’s not about how much they give. This is about teaching children to have sympathetic & charitable hearts, & it’s a fun way to bring the children to the altar.
