Give

See what God can do through your generosity

Stewardship enfolds all of life. When we sacrifice our time and serve others with our unique skills and God given gifts, we can make a significant kingdom impact. This pleases God and it is an important part of our discipleship. The Holy Spirit will guide you as you work out prayerfully where to invest your time and talents. You can explore opportunities to serve at newhope.net.au/serve.

The simplest practical approach to regular faithful giving, is to organise a weekly or monthly direct debit gift to NewHope. This is our twenty first century way of fulfilling Paul’s invitation in 1 Corinthians 16:2 – “On the first day of every week, each one of you should set aside a sum of money in keeping with your income”. See how to set up regular giving below.
