eGiving – A New Way to Tithe

If you tithe regularly, consider automating this process so that you don’t have to worry about last minute calculations or bringing checks or cash to Church services. You can set auto tithing up one of two ways:
1. If you have a free bill pay option in your bank account, you can set up your Church as a payee and create auto payments, which will mail a check to your Church. Of course, you may need to inform your Church about the process so they will be looking for the check and understand how to apply it.
2. A second and more efficient way is to sign up for your Church’s eGiving Program. eGiving is short for electronic giving. It is an automatic transfer program which allows you to make contributions without writing checks. The program basically withdraws money from your account at whatever interval you wish. Hopefully your Church has one of these. If they don’t, here’s an online program that could facilitate this service.

Our church has an automatic debit available, but we decided to keep doing the ol’ checks. For me it makes it more of a conscious decision and process for me to bring the check every week – it’s more of an act of worship for me that way..
