Introduction
Slide 1 - Giving Video
Sometimes life can get tiring, the grind of day-to-day life can just wear us down,
yet Jesus tells us in Matthew 11:28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”
That’s the savior we are here to worship today.
At Valley Chapel, one of the ways we worship is through giving and by doing so we enter into Jesus’ invitation to rest.
It reminds us that God will provide for our every need, and that we don't need to carry the burden of worry.

Instruction
If you would like to join us in worship through giving, instructions are in your pew, or at valleychapel.org/give.
We don’t pass a plate and many of us choose to give monthly, automatically online, or some other time during the week.
You can give whenever it is meaningful and helpful for you, even if that’s not during the worship service.

Now, let’s join together in a prayer to offer our giving to God in a spirit of unity.
