FUND TOTAL (as of today): $829.64

On Wednesday, March 5 I spoke to the youth on the issue of money & giving. We are so blessed in America to have all that we have, but we are also responsible to be good stewards of what God has blessed us with. Dr. Donald S. Whitney says that “the question is not how much of my money am I going to give to God, but how much of God’s money am I going to keep for myself?”

It is no secret that ministry requires resources and resources requires money. A big need we have for our H2O worship service on Wednesday night is a new projector for the right side of the room. However, this will cost about $1,000 to purchase and install. I have challenged the youth to raise the money needed for the new projector, but we will not be “fund raising” this money. I have asked the youth to give out of their own pockets, even if that means sacrificing some things they love.

Every week we will be taking up an offering from the youth. If every student gave one dollar for just 10 weeks we could raise the money needed. Please pray for God’s leadership as we give and move forward with the student ministry here at DeSoto Hills Baptist Church
