The Power Of Generosity
Did you know that we are blessed so we can be a blessing to others?
In other words, we exist to overflow God's blessing to our community.
We believe in the power of generosity.
Alaska Missions + Retreats
The Open Door supports Alaska Missions & Retreats each month through our Open Door Community Offering. This ministry serves the local community daily, and volunteers are invited to take part in impactful events like the Nome Women’s Retreat or the Salmon Frenzy—an outreach during key times of the year to serve native Alaskans. The people of this region, already burdened by the effects of abuse and alcoholism, have recently endured devastating fires and a tragic plane crash. Please join us in praying for the Alaska Natives—that they would find hope in salvation through Christ and experience the comfort of the Holy Spirit. Pray also for those faithfully serving on the ground, that both their physical and spiritual needs would be abundantly supplied.
Why Do We Give?
Every donation, no matter the size, makes a difference. We believe that Jesus calls us to radical generosity, so we give out of the gladness of our hearts. Our church mission, “know Christ, grow spiritually, and serve others” influences every aspect of our budget.
Here's how your contribution helps:
Supporting Our Ministries
Your donations enable us to run various programs and ministries that uplift and support individuals and families in our community.
Blessed to be a Blessing
We believe in carrying each other's burdens. Your generosity contributes to the Benevolence Fund created to meet the needs that arise within our church.
Equipping Our Place Of Worship
Your contributions help maintain our church building as a welcoming and safe space for worship, prayer, and community events.
Open Door’s Community Offering
We believe that the same God, who calls the individual to give, calls the church to give as well. The Open Door supports other like-minded ministries that purpose to share the gospel with those who have not yet come to know Christ in a personal way. A percentage of all giving is given monthly to the following ministries:
Alaska Missions (US)
Hope In Christ Ministry (local + worldwide)
Living Springs Faith Ministries (Africa)
Missionaries Brandon & Tanya Coco (Japan)
Ranchos Los Amigos (Mexico)
Louisiana Baptist Convention (Louisiana)
Evangeline Baptist Association (Louisiana)
Opelousas Pregnancy Center (Louisiana)
Gospel Travelers (worldwide)
You may often hear this referred to as "ODCO" the shorthand for Open Door Community Offering during Family Meetings or budget reviews.
