Ways To Give

There are multiple ways you can give, as outlined below:

  • In-Person

    • During an active, open church time (i.e. Wednesday night or Sunday morning worship). You may place your offering in the Offering Box at the back of the sanctuary, or you may turn it in to the Church Office. If you turn it in, please make sure to give it to one of the church staff members.
    • You may drop a check off during the week. Please feel free to call ahead to make sure someone is in the office

 

  • Mail a standard check

    • You may mail a check in any time. Please do NOT use the Physical Address of the church, but instead, for safety and protection of your checks, please use the Mailing Address below. If you ever have questions about receipt of a check sent via U.S. Postal Service, please call the Church Office.

The mailing address is:

P.O. Box 597
Ooltewah, TN 37363

 

  • e-check through your online banking bill pay system

    • Same mailing address as above. Only difference is that these checks take approximately 7 days to be received. Once received, it will typically be deposited the Monday or Tuesday after receipt (some exceptions do apply, like vacation weeks, etc.) Again, if there are ever any questions about whether a check has been received, please call the Church Office. NOTE: There is no fee for this, for you or the church.

ONLINE GIVING FEES

If you give online via credit/debit, there is a 2.75% fee that the church pays. You are able to absorb this fee on the website.

If you give online via ACH, the fee is only 1%. The church also pays this fee, but you can also choose to increase your donation if you would like to absorb it.

If you give by text, the fee is 2.75% also, but there is no way for you to absorb it unless you manually increase your donation.
