24% of charities giving comes at the end of the year!
What would you do with 24% if that amount of money came into your church from Thanksgiving to the end of the year? 24% of charities giving comes from Thanksgiving to the end of the year. What percentage of your annual giving comes in these last crucial weeks? While hopefully it is not that much none the less a huge percentage of our annual giving does come in those last few weeks.
If you had a plan of action for end of year giving at your church you would get some of that 24% that is going to non-profit charities! Let me give you a testimony from last year.
Last year a pastor of a church running 200 called me in October and said, “I want to take up a Christmas offering to help a mission we sponsor in Africa. I would like it to be the greatest offering we have ever take up. What should I do?” We talked through a strategy. It lead to this letter as a first step in a process towards garnering end of year commitments…
“I cannot let that woman die.”…These were the recent words of Zambian medical missionary Sal Marini to his wife after receiving a call at 3:00 a.m. from a woman who had just given birth to a baby, but was unable to deliver the afterbirth. In the bush of Zambia, the process of childbirth is a life and death experience in ways that many of us could never imagine. Often there is no doctor nor sanitary facilities. In fact, just this afternoon I was told, “Jason, it is not uncommon for these women to give birth to children on a dirt floor or the back of the pickup truck.”
The letter went on to share what his church could do to help. For $15K they could build a birthing center in Zambian to meet this need. This church gave over $15K in just a few weeks!
Our consider what I helped Cross Church of Northwest Arkansas, America’s 48th largest church accomplish in end of year giving…
“Our Church had an amazing and God-sized year-end in the area of giving!” We experienced…
- Largest amount ever given to our Ministry Budget during this year-end period.
- 20.8% above Ministry Budget giving in the same period last year.
- Capital Campaign and Ministry Budget combined was 27.7% above this giving during the same period last year.
