Electronic Giving

Picture
Please consider participating in a our program designed to simplify weekly giving in our congregation.

Electronic Giving enables every household or individual to make their church offering using electronic funds transfer (EFT). You may already be using EFT to pay your mortgage, car payment or insurance premium through an automatic withdrawal from your checking or savings account.

There is no cost to you for this giving option. If you are currently giving on a weekly basis, you will no longer need to write out 52 checks a year or prepare 52 envelopes. And, when travel, illness or other circumstances prevent you from attending services, this program will allow your weekly offerings to continue on an uninterrupted basis.

To participate in electronic giving:

  • download the Grace ETF Authorization Form*
  • complete the form
  • attach a voided check
  • return it to Grace with attention to Tamera Albert  in the church finance office.
Blank authorization forms are also available in the church office. Thank you for considering this new giving opportunity.

Donating IRA Distributions To A Charity
"Qualified charitable distributions (QCDs) have been permanently extended.  Individuals can donate up to $100,000 per year directly from a  traditional or Roth IRA to  qualifying charities.  This is attractive to some investors because QCDs can be used to satisfy required minimum distributions (RMDs) from an IRA without having the distribution included in their income."
Since the standard deduction has been increased, more taxpayers will be taking the standard deduction which means charitable contributions will no longer be deductible on those Federal Income Tax returns.
