Excerpt from Directory: Home Avenue United Brethren Church Dayton, Ohiothat they may see your good works and glorify your Father which is in heaven.We are co-workers together with the Lord, therefore, let us give due diligence to the work to which the Master has called us, teaching by word and example the way of the Lord Jesus.The United Brethren Church teaches God's ownership and man's stewardship. This should be accepted by every church member. We believe in the Bible standard of giving. (Mai. 3:8, 10, Matt. 23:23.)Let us then accept this plan and our coffers will be running over with plenty.We have adopted the single envelope system. All that you give is divided between local expenses and benevolent expenses. These benevolences are necessary and vital to the growth of the kingdom of God. I earnestly request that each member of the church have a systematic way of giving, and that it be followed diligently. Then shalt thou make thy way prosperous, and then shalt thou have good success. Lay up for yourself treasures in heaven.May God bless every one of you in giving you good health, happiness and abiding peace with and love for Christ, loyalty to the church, and through your faithfulness and devotion make you a great blessing to the church and the community in which you live and labor for Him.Brethren, pray for us, that in and through us the Word of God may have free access, and may run and be glorified.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
