What is
the E-giving Giving program?
It is an electronic
tithing or offering program for our church members and
constituents who are given the opportunity to sign up to have
their tithe or offering, conveniently transferred from their
checking or savings account into the church's bank account every
month.
Why
checking/savings account transfers?
We believe that the
Lord blesses those who give with a cheerful heart. We also
believe that giving is an important part of a Christian's life.
Today, people are
willing to have money transferred from their bank accounts to
pay insurance premiums, utility bills, mortgages, fitness
memberships and more. The reason is convenience and the
certainty that a payment won't be skipped. For the same reasons,
the E-giving Giving program benefits those who want to sow
money into their church faithfully and consistently.
Will it
cost me anything?
No, the church will
cover the small monthly service and transaction fees.
How
often will I be able to give electronically?
The dates available
for an account to be debited are the 10th and 25th of each
month. If the 10th or the 25th fall on a weekend or holiday, the
debit will occur on the next business day. Accounts can debited
monthly, semi-monthly or quarterly.
Can I
change the amount of my tithe or offering transfer?
Yes, you may do so
by calling the church at 304.776.1511. Additional gifts may be
placed in the offering plates on Sundays or directed to the
church office.
What are
the benefits?
Members & constituents who work on
weekends, go away on vacation, are out of town on Sundays or are
no longer able to attend church due to health reasons can stay
financially connected to the church
Members and constituents won't omit giving
by mistake
Transfer giving makes it easier to manage
church budgets because the church leadership can rely on
guaranteed income every month
