At Houston's First, every dollar given is a seed planted in God’s Kingdom—impacting lives here in our city, across the nation, and around the world. Whether you have $20 in your bank account or have been blessed with abundance, your faithful generosity matters. Together, we can do more than we ever could alone.
Through General Missions, you directly support the hands and feet of Christ in action—local and global missions that bring hope, healing, and the Good News of Jesus to those who need it most.
Giving is an act of worship and obedience to God. The Bible teaches us to give cheerfully (2 Cor. 9:7) and to support the work of the church in spreading the Gospel and serving others.
You can give in multiple ways:
Bank Bill Pay: Set up recurring giving through your bank.
Yes, all contributions to the church are tax-deductible as allowed by law. You will receive a giving statement at the end of the year for tax purposes.
A tithe means giving 10% of your income to God’s work (Malachi 3:10). While tithing is a biblical principle, we encourage each person to give as they feel led by God—cheerfully and sacrificially.
Yes! While tithes go to the general ministry of the church (The Great Commission Fund), you can also give to specific ministries such as missions or benevolence. Simply select your designation when giving online or note it on your check or envelope.
All gifts support the mission and ministry of the church, including worship services, discipleship programs, local and global missions, community outreach, staff support, and maintaining church facilities.
If you have any questions about giving, need assistance setting up online giving, or want to request your giving statement, please contact our finance office at Finance@HoustonsFirst.org.
We understand that financial circumstances vary. Giving is just one way to worship God—your time, talents, and prayers are also valuable contributions to the church’s ministry. If you need financial guidance, we also offer biblical financial counseling resources.
