How One Church Collected Over 70 Million Ghana Cedis in 10 Years — A Shocking Breakdown of Offerings, Tithes & Seeds
In Ghana today, churches are not just spiritual homes, many have become powerful financial enterprises. But have you ever wondered how much money a single church can actually generate from members over time?
Let’s break down a stunning 10-year analysis from Give to Receive International Church, founded by Mr. Con, with 2,000 loyal members divided into three giving categories: Red, Gold, and Diamond.
The numbers will shock you.
🔥 The Red Group (1,000 Members) — “The Faithful Givers”
These members give small amounts weekly, but consistent giving adds up massively.
- Offering: 5 GHs every Sunday
- Tithe: 50 GHs monthly
- Seed: 100 GHs yearly
👉 Each Red member gives 960 GHs every year
👉 Over 10 years: 9,600 GHs per person
👉 Total from the entire Red Group in 10 years: 9,600,000 GHs
Little by little, a mountain truly forms.
🔥 The Gold Group (500 Members) — “The Steady Pillars”
These are the mid-tier givers every church depends on.
- Offering: 20 GHs weekly
- Tithe: 150 GHs monthly
- Seed: 200 GHs yearly
👉 Each person gives 3,040 GHs yearly
👉 In 10 years: 30,400 GHs per person
👉 Total from Gold Group: 15,200,000 GHs
When mid-level giving compounds, the numbers double fast.
🔥 The Diamond Group (500 Members) — “The Financial Powerhouses”
These members are the reason many churches can build massive auditoriums, mansions, and buy luxury vehicles.
- Offering: 50 GHs weekly

👉 Each Diamond member gives 9,100 GHs yearly
👉 In 10 years: a jaw-dropping 91,000 GHs per person
👉 Group contribution in 10 years: 45,500,000 GHs
This group alone brings in more money than the other two combined.

WHY THIS MATTERS
This breakdown is not to attack or defend churches. It is to open conversations:
- Do church members understand the financial power they hold collectively?
- Are churches transparent about how this money is used?
- Should there be more accountability for offerings, tithes, and seed contributions?
- Are members benefiting as much as leaders are?
FINAL THOUGHT
Whether you call it faith, duty, tradition, or business, one thing is clear:
A church with a structured giving system is a multi-million-cedi enterprise.
If you found this breakdown eye-opening, share it. Conversations shape change.
