Our whole yearly church budget is less than 20k.

I would have to conclude then that your entire congregation makes less than $200,000.

In my experience as a former church treasurer, I found that those who made less gave more and more faithfully than those whose incomes were higher. I always thought that sad. That’s just my own experience though.

Good point.
10 tithing adults support the pastor
20 tithing adults support the pastor and the building
30 tithing adults support the pastor the building the mission

That would be close. We do have some attendees though that tithe like most Christians tip their waitress. You know the kind, a dollar no matter how big the bill.
