The Love Offering

Why would John & Kate want the
Love Offering in the middle of the service?

1. ATTENTION
Placing the love offering in the middle of the program captures the audience's attention and engagement. At the beginning, people are settling in, and towards the end, they may feel fatigued or distracted. By placing it in the middle, we ensure it receives the attention it deserves.

2. MOMENTUM
Also, while in the middle, it helps to maintain the momentum and energy of the program. It serves as a resting midpoint, creating anticipation and excitement for the rest of the service.

3. REFLECTION
​Additionally, a middle offering provides an opportunity for personal reflection and response. By placing it after a segment of the program that focuses on the mission and impact of our missionary family, it allows the audience to connect to our family and give according to the what the Lord wants.

4. SMOOTH FLOW
Lastly, having the love offering in the middle allows for a smoother flow of the program. It provides a natural break in the service where the congregation can prepare their hearts for the upcoming message from God’s Word - the most important part of the program.

5. CONCLUSION
In conclusion, a middle-placed love offering has proved to be the PERFECT placement for our family and the calling God has for us.

Thank you for considering this suggestion. After thousands of services, we believe it will greatly benefit the entire day.
