Tithes and Offerings

Tithes and offerings are money that we bring to church to help do God’s work.

What is a Tithe?
In the Old Testament God told people to give him one-tenth of what they earned. He still wants us to
do this today. This is called a tithe.

If you earn ten cents your tithe is one cent. Circle or color one cent.

If you earn one dollar your tithe is ten cents. Circle or color ten cents.

If you earn ten dollars your tithe is one dollar. Circle or color one dollar.

What is an Offering?
If you bring more money than just a tithe, that is an offering.
