"Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse... Test me in this," says the Lord Almighty, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven." – Malachi 3:10
This powerful verse reminds us that tithing is not only an obligation but also a divine promise—that when we give faithfully, God will bless us abundantly.
A Sacred Offering. A Faithful Commitment. A Community Sustained.
✨ What is Tithing?
Tithing is the biblical practice of giving one-tenth of one’s income back to God. In the Orthodox Christian tradition, it is an act of worship that reflects our faith, gratitude, and obedience to God’s Word.
Tithing reminds us that everything we have is a gift from God—and by offering a portion back, we honor Him and support His work through the Church.
“Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops.”
– Proverbs 3:9
🌿 Why is Tithing important?
Tithing is not just about money—it’s about mission, stewardship, and sustaining a Christ-centered community. At Finote Selam St. Uriel Church, your tithe directly supports:
✝️ Sacred Liturgical Worship – including prayers, sacraments, and holy celebrations
👨👩👧 Sunday School & Youth Ministry – nurturing the next generation in faith
💒 Church Operations & Maintenance – keeping our sacred space active and welcoming
💞 Pastoral Care & Community Support – especially for newcomers, women, and families
Tithing allows us to serve more, give more, and grow more—together.
