AnnuaL Commitment

Love Generously

Why does making an annual financial commitment to your church matter? Because when we give, we are making an investment in relationships and the eternal Kingdom of God. Your giving keeps the buildings running and funds important ministry initiatives, so that we can continue to Be the Light and bless our neighbors. And that starts with the mundane things like heating and cooling, keeping the lights on, and yes... coffee.

RESTORE Campaign.

As you can imagine, over time our church facilities experience natural wear, tear, and aging. Our hope and desire is to be a Church that proclaims Jesus and Restores hearts, with physical spaces that are safe, warm and welcoming to our friends, neighbors, and church family.

Colonial’s Session, pastors, and staff have prayerfully discerned that it is time to Restore many of our spaces. Acts 15:12-18 includes “...After this I will return and rebuild David’s fallen tent. Its ruins I will rebuild, and I will restore it, that the rest of mankind may seek the Lord, even all the Gentiles who bear my name...” We have identified a number of opportunities for renovation, restoration, and upgrades to enhance the overall Sunday morning experience, strengthen our ministries, and update our décor, safety, and security.

The Restore Capital Campaign launched in 2024 (which will run through May 2026), to help address these needs. As you'll see from the update below, we've made great progress in raising and investing funds toward our goal.

If you would like to still contribute just click on one of the giving links below and select Restore from the drop down menu, or send in a check noting that your contribution is for Restore.

Thank you for being a generous church!

Giving FAQs

Commonly asked questions regarding giving.

We take very seriously the challenge to manage the blessings that God has bestowed on the church through the generosity of His faithful followers. It is important to us that you have confidence in Colonial’s stewardship, so that you may give confidently to support the Ministry and Mission of Colonial.

· The Session and Finance Elder, elected by the Congregation, oversee the financial operations of the church.

· Financial reports reflecting the contributions and spending are reviewed by the finance committee monthly and reviewed and approved by Session on a quarterly basis.

· Session has adopted a Fiscal Policy which governs expenditure approval levels and authority for financial decisions

· Each year the books of the church are reviewed by an outside CPA firm who issues a report to Session, independent of church staff.

· Colonial’s annual Ministry Operations Budget is reviewed and approved by Session.

The Executive Team prepares a budget to guide the operations of the church each year. The budget is initially approved by the Finance Committee and then presented to and approved by Session. A brief overview of the budget is presented at the annual congregational meeting by the Finance Elder. For more information on the annual budget please contact Executive Director of Finance & Administration, Matt Stinson, at 816-501-3001 or mstinson@colonialkc.org.

We believe that making an intentional, purposeful financial commitment is an important part of discipleship. We encourage our members to see this as a response to God’s blessing, reflecting trust in God’s future provision. Each year, your Generosity Team will ask members to make commitments for their giving to the Ministry Operating Fund for the calendar year. You can monitor progress through your Colonial Community Church Builder (CCB) account HERE , or through periodic mailed statements. If unforeseen circumstances arise you can adjust your pledge at any time.

Colonial believes in a unified budget and includes in our Ministry Operating budget the funds required to support numerous missionaries and ministries outside the walls of the church. The first 10% of each week’s offering is set aside and dedicated to this purpose. So, the best way to support the Missions work of Colonial is with regular contributions to the Ministry Operating Fund. In addition, Colonial has three special Missions offering opportunities a year, Bless Our City during Easter, Be the Light in the fall, and Walk to the Manger during the advent season.

Ultimately, Session and the Finance Elder are accountable for how church funds are spent. They approve the annual budget and review financial results as well as the annual report provided by an independent CPA. In addition, there is a Finance Committee, appointed by Session to help guide financial decisions. On staff, the Executive Director of Finance & Administration, Matt Stinson, is available to answer any questions you might have at 816-501-3001 or mstinson@colonialkc.org.
