Church programs for Monday, Jan. 22 will resume their normal schedule at all locations this evening.
Leawood’s Sunday night in-person worship has been moved to 4 pm for Sunday, February 11.
This page gives you a glimpse of the ways God uses your gifts to change the world.
Our annual ministry fund campaign is a vital part of making possible the work God has called us to do. It is through your faithful giving we can provide financial support to our wide diversity of ministries for all ages, care for those in need, local and global missions, and share the love of Christ in our community and beyond. Think about the ways in which God has blessed you and how you can be a blessing to others. Your generosity is a testament to your faith and a powerful expression of God’s love in action.
This Christmas Eve, join us in our cherished tradition of giving away 100% of our Candlelight Service offering. Your generosity will make a direct impact both globally and locally, as half of every gift supports international missions and ministry while the other half serves needs right here in Kansas City. In our community, we’re focused on transforming lives through literacy and education programs for Pre-K and Elementary students, while also addressing critical family needs of food security and housing. Globally, your gifts will help alleviate extreme poverty through education, permaculture, economic empowerment, and healthcare initiatives. You can also make a gift in honor of someone special, and we’ll provide a beautiful card to notify them of this meaningful gesture. Together, we can share Christ’s love in powerful and practical ways this Christmas season.

The Resurrection Foundation (TIN 05-0525052) was established in 2002 to identify and develop opportunities for planned giving.

Step 1 is to go to God in prayer and ask for guidance. Giving financial resources to God’s work in the world is an act of faith.
Step 2 is the opportunity to join God’s work in the world. Commitment is an act of worship, gratitude and discipleship.
Step 3 is determining the method you will make your gift(s) this year. Giving is the follow-through on your commitment.
All we have is a gift from God, so we believe that giving to God's work is an act of worship.
At Resurrection, giving is an expectation of membership. The church does not specify how much an individual should give, but we hope each person will commit a percentage of their income with a tithe being the goal.
Annual giving makes possible: worship, programs for children and students, Bible studies, small groups, pastoral care and support, mission trips, community service, and supports building and operational needs.
Your generosity towards Resurrection’s Ministry Fund makes our ministry possible.
But, that’s not the only opportunity to make a difference.
Throughout scripture God calls one generation to pass on the faith to the next. In this campaign, we’re seeking to ensure our buildings and programs faithfully connect with and care for all people of the church and community, from the oldest to the youngest. Thus, ensuring our ability to pass on the faith from generation to generation. To learn more, click the button below.

As Pastor Cheryl Jefferson Bell states, “Giving is a tangible way of showing my faith because I believe everything I have comes from God”. There is joy to experience when giving is made a priority as part of your worship. If this is your home church, we invite you to invest in God’s work through the mission and ministries at Resurrection. A tithe is offering the first 10% of what you have as a gift back to God. In this video, Cheryl shares her journey to give a tithe and the joy she experiences through that generosity.

As Christians we recognize everything we have comes from God, and we are simply sharing those gifts for Kingdom work. Through our tithes and offerings, we demonstrate in a tangible way our love for God and our neighbors. Pray about giving regularly to God’s ministry and mission through Resurrection with a goal of tithing 10% of your annual income. (For more information about tithing, read this GPS Guide post.)
A ministry fund commitment, also known as a pledge, is an individual or family’s annual commitment to the church of their tithes and offerings in support of our church’s ministry and mission.
Ministry and mission through Resurrection are made possible by gifts to the Ministry Fund. This is the vital fund that supports all the programs and ministries and the church. This includes funding worship, programs for children and students, Bible studies, small groups, pastoral care and support, mission trips, community service, building and operational needs, and staffing.
You can complete a Ministry Fund commitment at any time. Resurrection engages in an annual Stewardship campaign during worship typically each November. As a congregation, we will express our gratitude to God and present our cards, representing our commitment to God’s ministry through our church.
