The Biblical minimum standard for giving is referred to as a “Tithe.” The tithe represents 10% of your earnings.  Since the Bible teaches “proportionate giving” (also known as percentage-based giving), you should determine what your current giving is as a percentage of your earnings, and then progress towards increasing your giving to a tithe.

An electronic contribution is safer than writing a check, and it can`t be lost, stolen, or destroyed in the mail. Strict national rules and guidelines govern all Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT) transactions.  Over four billion EFT transactions are processed annually in the United States.

No. Electronic funds transfers carry no bank fees for the payer.

Yes. You can select Quick Give to give a one-time gift. You will see how easy and efficient the process really is.

For Scheduled Giving, the “Amount” is the amount that will be given each time a contribution is made. The “Frequency” is how often you will give.  You will need to divide your annual pledge by the number of contributions you will be making to meet that pledge to arrive at the amount to be entered in the amount field. 

Enter the amount to contribute to a single purpose only, then set the frequency for that purpose and complete the entire payment process. Once the payment process is completed for your first contribution purpose, repeat the entire process through to completion for each separate purpose for which you want a different giving frequency.

When you select the “Frequency” of giving, the date that your gift will be processed is shown for that selection. On the signup screen, you can specify whether you want your contribution made weekly, biweekly, twice monthly, or monthly.  When the date you have selected falls on a weekend or holiday, the transaction will occur the next business day.

Giving for Atascocita Methodist General Operations (Tithes and Offerings) is always available and listed for giving. Also available from time to time will be special project or seasonal offerings.

Yes, but Atascocita Methodist incurs up to a 3% processing fee for amounts given by credit card.  For us to realize your full contribution, we ask you to add this extra amount to your gift to offset the fee to the church.  Remember Proverbs 22:7 teaches us, “the borrower is the slave of the lender” and we discourage using the credit card option if it results in you incurring debt. We accept MasterCard, VISA, and Discover.
