FAQs
-
We believe that everything we have is a gift from God, and that giving financially is an act of worship, and a way for us to reflect God’s generous heart for our city.
At Oxford Community Church we teach the biblical practice of tithing - giving the first 10% of our earnings to the Lord as an act of worship.We also seek to be generous over and above the tithe, giving to special offerings, to other charities and organisations, and to those who have need.

If you would rather give by cash or cheque on a Sunday, you can certainly do so. We have offering buckets on the stage during the service. Cheques can be made out to Oxford Community Church.

As a local church, we often encourage giving beyond ourselves, to other people and projects who are making a difference in our city, our nation, and overseas.
Here are a few other things you may wish to give to:
OCC Hardship Fund (Offering support to those who are in hardship or distress, aged or sick.)

Hardship Fund
One of the joys of being church is supporting one another in times of need. We hear and respond to need in different ways across church life - through friendships, pastoral relationships, community groups, and other support networks. We want to honour this generosity, much of which is sacrificial and unseen. We are a generous church.
We operate a Hardship Fund, to which people can apply if they or someone they know in Oxford are in financial hardship or distress. A small panel of pastors reviews these needs and decides how to respond and support. If you would like to give to this fund to enable us to care for those in need within our community, you can do so below.
