Giving

For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

- Matthew 6:21

Why we give.

God is generous and so he calls us to be as well.  What we do with what God has given us shows the world where our hearts are and helps proclaim the gospel. We want to glorify God with every area of our lives, and that includes what we do with our finances.

ETSU Wesley Foundation

The ETSU Wesley Foundation is a campus ministry affiliated with the United Methodist Church, but open to EVERYONE at East Tennessee State University and surrounding college campuses. We welcome all denominations with open arms, and many of our students are of other denominations. Our ministry aims to be a home away from home for college students where they can come worship, fellowship, and make friendships that will last a lifetime, in an atmosphere where they can grow closer to God.
