Giving
|
Every organisation needs a sound financial base from which to operate. Listed below are the principles on which Crossnet’s finances are run. 1) We encourage all our regular members to join in
contributing generously to meet Crossnet’s anticipated
expenditure. The Bible teaches again and again that generous giving is
a spiritual exercise which results in immense spiritual blessing to
those that give. |

2) Crossnet is a mission organisation. We have a policy of
giving away 10% of all income to assist and promote mission work which
includes giving for the relief of poverty, supporting other mission
enterprises and evangelism.
• A list of the gifts we made in 2006 can be accessed here.
3) We believe in transparency in all our financial dealings.
• The annual accounts for 2006 can be viewed here.
• We do not disclose details of donors or private gifts, or Welfare donations.
4) The main source of income is the private gifts from Crossnet members.
• When Crossnet was launched in 2004 we received several generous
grants from supporting organisations, but these have now been used up.
5) We are deeply convinced that this is an area of
opportunity for spiritual growth and development. Jesus taught more on
the topic of money than any other issue, even the issue of faith.
• We ourselves give sacrificially to Crossnet and we invite you to join in this ministry with us.
• When appointing leaders to new tasks we look for those whose faith is evidenced by sacrificial giving.
• We try and cultivate a culture of generosity throughout
Crossnet, seeing giving as enjoyable and as a privilege. It is an
important spiritual discipline in an age of materialism and
acquisitiveness.
