Questions about Online Giving
Which account do I choose? When you give online, you'll see accounts for your regular tithe, as well as
The Great Investment campaign.
You can also give to The Great Investment Campaign, our 3-year campaign to build our new campus on the new Veterans Blvd.
Can I schedule recurring donations? Yes, you can specify whether you want your contribution made one time, weekly, twice per month, monthly, quarterly, or yearly. You can set up as many schedules as you would like, so it is possible to give a monthly gift as well as a weekly one.
Will I still receive a contribution statement? Yes, we will mail your year-end giving statement directly to your home address.
What if I change credit cards or want to adjust the date or amount of a contribution? You can edit or delete a scheduled contribution at anytime, including the credit card, date, frequency and amount.
Is online giving secure? We've taken steps to ensure that the giving process is safe and secure from beginning to end. All of your giving data is secured by SSL encryption. SSL is an acronym for "Secure Socket Layer", a security protocol that provides communications privacy over the Internet. It is the same technology used by banks and e-commerce companies such as Amazon.com to keep your information safe and secure during transactions.
Who do I talk to if I have more questions? Contact the Finance Department at 865.453.7696 and we'll be glad to answer any other questions you may have.
