Thank you for your support!
Eastside is a giving church. Whenever a personal need arises in the church, we help as we are able.
We have two ongoing ministries, one based in Tullahoma. Shepherd's House serves woman and children during difficult times. Our church helps provide household items, food, and holiday items. It is a pleasure to serve these ladies.
Our other ministry is through our denomination's Missions Department. We prepare Crisis Care Kits which include hygiene supplies for people and are distributed in the United States when disaster hits. Our East Tennessee District helps to ensure that these kits reach people in their time of need.
Our church strongly supports these ministries.
Matthew 22:37 (NIV): Jesus replied: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself."
2 Corinthians 9:7 (NIV): "Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver".
Beyond our regular support of the church, we also engage in Faith Promise giving, which is a systematic plan for giving to global missions through our denomination. We also encourage people to give of their time to the different needs of the church such as teaching, landscaping, helping at church dinners, or other ways that use their abilitites. Even our children get involved in giving offerings and helping as they can.
World Mission offerings (Faith Promise) go to help build churches, homes, hospitals, and schools on foreign mission fields around the world. They also help support missionaries sent from our East Tenessee District and the general church. This financial support enables them to stay in their assignments. We host services when missionaries come home to share about their work, and take an offering to help them while here in the states until they return to their mission field.
