E-Giving Frequently Asked Questions
What is the e-Giving program?
It is an opportunity to have your weekly tax-deductable contribution conveniently transferred from your checking, or savings account into the church’s bank account.
Why checking/savings account transfers?
Today, people are willing to have money transferred from their bank accounts to pay mortgages, insurance premiums, utility bills, fitness memberships and more. The reasons are convenience and the certainty that a payment won’t be skipped. Greater Heights UMC’s E- Giving program benefits those who want to ensure their contribution are received faithfully and consistently without the hassle of writing checks and remembering envelopes.
Will it cost me anything extra?
No, the church will cover the small monthly service and transaction fees.
How often will I be able to give electronically?
The dates available for an account to be debited are the 5th and 25th of each month. If the 1st or the 15th fall on a weekend or holiday, the debit will occur on the next business day. Accounts can be debited once a month or twice a month.
Can I change the amount of my tithe or offering transfer?
Yes, you may do so by contacting the church treasurer at treasurer@greaterheightsumc.com. Additional gifts may be placed in the offering plates on Sundays or given online directly through our website: greaterheightsumc.com
What are the benefits?
- Parishioners who work on weekends, go away on vacation, are out of town on Sundays or are no longer able to attend church due to health reasons can stay financially connected to the church.
- Parishioners won’t omit giving by mistake
- Greater Heights UMC E-giving makes it easier to manage church budgets because the church leadership can rely on guaranteed income every month.
