What are “Apportionments”?
In the Old Testament book of Exodus, God instructed the Israelites to tithe 10% of what they had back to the Lord. The United Methodist Church upholds the discipline of tithing 10% of our individual resources as well as 10% of our church’s resources to the denomination at-large. Thus, approximately 10% of what our church spends each year goes toward our United Methodist Ministry on a global scale.
