TITHES & OFFERINGS

When we give faithfully of the increase God has trusted us with, we are worshipping and honoring Him with our first and our best. Scripture teaches us to "Honor the lord with your possessions, And with the first fruits of all your increase; So your barns will be filled with plenty, And your vats will overflow with new wine."
Proverbs 3:9-10 ESV

WHY GIVE

  • Our faithful giving demonstrates that we trust God with a tithe of the resources he has entrusted to us.
  • Our giving is a reflection of our heart, what we believe, and our faith in Christ.
  • We give because we care about others and we are doing our part to make provision for the orphan, the widow, and the homeless as scripture teaches.
  • Our giving provides for the growth of the Kingdom of God into every corner of the earth.

TO BE HELPFUL

Giving out of your resources is a big responsibility and sometimes there are questions that when answered help eliminate any fears or doubts.

Is online giving safe?

Yes. Our online giving system uses Stripe as our processor. Stripe is a certified PCI Level 1 payment processor.

Do I have to create an account?

No. You can give anonymously or you can choose to create an account. The decision is yours. The advantage of creating an account, which is very easy, is since your contributions are tax-deductible you will be able to receive a giving statement at the end of the year.

If I choose to cover the fees are they deductible?

Yes, the fees are deductible and are added to your total contribution amount. You will see this in the giving statement you receive at the end of each year.

Can I view past donations?

Yes. If you create an account you simply login at any time and review your statement in real-time.

Will I be added to an email list?

No. Unless you choose to request email notifications you will not receive any.

Which "fund" do I choose?

Generally speaking, most contributions will be allocated to Tithe and Offering, which is the first selection in the drop-down box. At different times we may have a guest speaker or you may choose to give to one of the many missions we support. In that case you would choose the fund associated by name.
