Brothers and sisters, as we live in a highly technological age, the board thought it best to offer up a new electronic avenue for those of you who are interested to provide your support to this church. Effective February 15, 2008, you will be able to make electronic deposits to the church through electronic payment, through the church PayPal account, or through electronic fund transfer from your banking institution. 

      In accordance with scripture, we ask that you do not use credit to pay your tithes. We believe that credit is a burden and as a ministry have taken the stance that we want no part of any personal bondage that can be laid upon any believer that uses this means of giving. Recognizing that there is a vast difference between credit card and debit card transactions, we encourage those who wish to provide their tithe support with a debit card to do so. However, we also recognize that the Visa and MasterCard virtual monopoly on the debit card industry prohibits us from having a payment option that will only take debit cards, thus opening the door to those who could possibly use a credit card and increase their own personal debt. As such, it is impossible for us to ensure that every tithe or offering has complied with our debit card policy. We trust that all of our members hold exceedingly high levels of integrity and ask that you please follow our support policy, NO CREDIT CARD PAYMENTS, and ensure the funding of the church without increasing your personal debt. We cite two very relevant verses in Scripture in making this request of you:

 Proverbs 22:   

     7 The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.

 

     26 Do not be a man who strikes hands in pledge or puts up security for debts;
     27 if you lack the means to pay, your very bed will be snatched   from under you.
