Give
Your generosity fuels our mission to transform lives and communities. Through your faithful giving, you're partnering with us to create spaces where people can treasure God's presence, build healthy relationships, and find purpose through serving others.
At Upper Room Fellowship, we believe in living the Gospel through overwhelming generosity. Just as Jesus gave everything for us, opening the way for our complete salvation, healing, and deliverance, we're called to give freely and joyfully to further His kingdom on earth. When we give, we reflect God's character and participate in His work of restoration.
Why We Give
The Bible teaches that generous giving is an act of worship that reflects our trust in God's provision and our commitment to His mission. In 2 Corinthians 9:6-7, we're encouraged to give cheerfully, not reluctantly or under compulsion, because God loves a cheerful giver.
Giving is not about obligation but opportunity—the opportunity to:
01
Worship God by honoring Him with our finances
02
Grow spiritually as we trust God with our resources
03
Invest in ministry that transforms lives locally and globally
04
Express gratitude for God's overwhelming generosity toward us
05
Partner with God in building His kingdom on earth
When we give generously, we're living out our core value of overwhelming generosity—modeling the life of Christ through servanthood and generous giving so that our friends, families, and communities can know the amazing love and salvation of Jesus.
Ways to Give
Financial Accountability
We're committed to stewarding your gifts with integrity and transparency. Upper Room Fellowship follows strict financial protocols including:
- Monthly financial reviews by our finance team
- Clear budgeting processes aligned with our mission and values
- Regular financial updates to the congregation
- Adherence to all accounting standards and legal requirements
Your contributions primarily support our local church ministries, facilities, staff, and outreach efforts, with a portion designated to missions.
Generosity Testimony
Living by these values isn't always easy, but we've found it's incredibly rewarding. There's a real sense of purpose and joy that comes from aligning our lives with what God values. As the Psalms put it, "There truly is a reward for those who live for God" (Psalm 58:11b NLT).
We've found this to be true in our own lives, especially in the area of generosity. When we give freely as God has given to us, we experience His faithfulness in remarkable ways. Your story of generosity can inspire others as well—consider sharing how giving has impacted your life by submitting a testimony
