Why We Give

Generosity originates with the generous love of God. It changes our hearts in a way that makes a difference in our world.

There are certain traits that define the culture of a group ... traits that come naturally and are expected. For The Bayou Church, one of those is generosity.

How We Give

One mission, one fund.

We have one mission as a church—transforming lives in Acadiana through Christ-centered relationships. We live out that mission in many different ways.

Our ongoing, weekly ministries serve preschoolers, kids, students, and adults from all different backgrounds with all different types of needs. We make a difference in Acadiana and around the world through our Ministry Partners. We make significant investments in our campus because it's one of the primary tools we have and we want to be good stewards of it. 

All these areas are resourced through the giving of the Bayou family. When you make a contribution to The Bayou, you're contributing to all of the ways we pursue and live out our mission.

Generosity in Action
