Your donations are primarily used to help us communicate the Gospel of Jesus to children, students and adults through the work of The City Church. We are not sponsored by any group or denomination; therefore, the vast majority of our income comes from donors. Also, The City Church financially supports local and international charities that we believe align with our mission. Examples of such charities are: Eden Food for Change, Samaritan’s Purse, Christians Against Poverty, ARC Canada.

Many times giving in the Bible (Old and New Testament) is referenced in terms of percentages. A “tithe” (10%) of our income is generally a good place to start. For some, 10% sounds like a lot of money, and they choose to start at a lower percentage and increase that amount over time. Many others choose to give with radical generosity and give well above 10%. Everyone who attends a local church should see themselves as contributor to that local body; finances is one of the ways we can be generous.  Giving, resources the church and blesses the giver.

All of the expenditures of The City Church are reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors. The City Church of Mississauga also undergoes an independent yearly financial audit performed by a Chartered Accountant.
