A thousand churches,
grateful for Jesus,
sharing him with others.
This is the Why
Some churches give directly from their budget.
Some run the offering during Easter. Some do both.
But no matter how – this is the why:
Expressing gratitude for Jesus
Investing in sharing his great news
How to Run the Offering
3 EASY, EFFECTIVE AND GUEST-FRIENDLY STEPS
1. Make a Place...
Download and print out the Giving Point poster below.
Create one or more places in your foyer where congregation members can easily access it.
Leave it in place for the whole month of April to give people plenty of opportunity.
2. Make a Mention...
Promote the offering in advance, especially through internal communications such as members meetings, email, and pre-Easter Sundays. This keeps your church family well informed and prepared, while minimising distraction for guests at the Easter services.
This year we’re joining in the Australian Baptist Easter Offering to unite with a thousand churches in expressing our gratitude for
Jesus and investing in sharing him with others.
The offering funds Crossover – a national Baptist ministry that provides all sorts of resources, training and encouragement to help us share Christ with others.
So let’s give generously as we are able! To contribute see our posters in the foyer or visit crossover.org.au/abeo

3. Make a Time...
Although the Giving Point is available for a whole month, it’s very helpful to still announce the offering at a particular time—e.g. at the end of the Good Friday service.
As we leave today, there’s no obligation, but for our offering we’re joining in the Australian Baptist Easter Offering— you’ll see there’s a giving point in the foyer.
(Similarly, on the Sunday after Easter, announce a ’last chance’ to give.)
