First United Methodist Church, 102 N. Main, Maryville, MO 64468

 “Where your treasure is, there your heart is also.” Luke 12:34

Offering ourselves to the work of God through financial giving is a good and necessary part of our Christian Discipleship. What should I contribute and how much, are good and natural questions. Proportional giving (a percentage of income) is a worthy goal. The Biblical standard is 10%. First mile giving goes to Maryville First United Methodist Church in support of the operating budget. This provides for the day to day operation of the church, pays salaries of the employees and supports our fair share portion of United Methodist expenses beyond our local congregation.

Second mile giving is just that…giving beyond our weekly or monthly contributions to the church. It is a designated giving.
