Online Giving Option Now Available
Church family,
First of all, THANK YOU for your faithfulness to support the work of the church with your financial gifts through tithes and offerings! We could not fulfill the ministry of the church without your faithful giving, and we are grateful.
In an effort to make giving more effortless and more efficient for you, we have implemented Tithe.ly, a trusted online giving platform used by more than 37,000 churches and ministries, by adding a "Giving" page to our church website, which you can access here: https://gracelifebrookhaven.com/giving, and on which you will find a link that will launch our Grace Life Church of Brookhaven Tithe.ly page.
On the Tithe.ly page, you will be presented with the opportunity to create an account, in which you can securely store your payment sources, including card, bank account, or Apple Pay, so you only have to enter that information once, and it will be there waiting for you the next time you log in.
There is even an option for "Recurring Giving" which you can use if you want to automatically give "Every Week, Every Two Weeks, Every Month," or on the "1st & 15th Monthly," and you can even choose the recurring day of the week on which your gift will be submitted. Alternatively, if you do not check the "Recurring Giving" box, you can simply submit a one-time gift each time you log in to give.
Tithe.ly requires no setup cost or monthly cost to the church, as they charge a small fee each time you give online, and they provide an option for you to "Cover Fees" with your gift.
Below are some sample gift amounts, along with their respective fees, and the total amount of your gift if you choose to cover the fees:
A gift of $25.00 incurs a fee of $0.56, for a total gift of $25.56
A gift of $50.00 incurs a fee of $0.81, for a total gift of $50.81
A gift of $100.00 incurs a fee of $1.31, for a total gift of $101.31
A gift of $250.00 incurs a fee of $2.83, for a total gift of $252.83
A gift of $500.00 incurs a fee of $5.35, for a total gift of $505.35
A gift of $1,000.00 incurs a fee of $10.40, for a total gift of $1,010.40
If you do not click the "Cover Fees" checkbox, all that means is that the fee will be subtracted from your gift, which would look like the list below:
A gift of $25.00 incurs a fee of $0.56, for a total gift of $24.44
A gift of $50.00 incurs a fee of $0.81, for a total gift of $49.19
A gift of $100.00 incurs a fee of $1.31, for a total gift of $98.69
A gift of $250.00 incurs a fee of $2.83, for a total gift of $247.17
A gift of $500.00 incurs a fee of $5.35, for a total gift of $494.65
A gift of $1,000.00 incurs a fee of $10.40, for a total gift of $989.60
We are grateful for you, no matter which way you choose to give, but wanted you to be equipped with an understanding of how the system works in advance. Rest assured, that if you prefer to give the old fashioned way, in person and in the plate, we are just a grateful for your faithfulness!
