FAQs
How much do I give?
Many times we tend to look at the size of the gift or the goodness of the cause. But Jesus measured generosity by a different standard: the condition of the giver’s heart. The best place to begin is by giving 10 percent of your income, which was modeled for us in the Old Testament. Some may want to start with more or less, but it's often best to begin with a set percentage on a regular basis and increase as God leads you. Key things to do before giving: 1) Ask God for direction. 2) Choose a percentage and commit to it. 3) Remember everything you have belongs to God - the act of giving is simply offering back to God what is already His.
What is the best way to give?
The way that makes you feel most comfortable is the best for you. However, we believe that online or mobile giving is the easiest and most cost efficient way to give. It's automatic, secure, and immediately reflects in your giving record.
Can I designate my giving to a specific ministry or fund?
Each program and ministry at Access Church is funded through our General Fund or, at certain times, a campaign fund. We ask you to fund Access Church through either of those two funds. The church staff and trustee board carefully consider how our funds will be distributed among our church and ministries in a way that keeps our mission and most important values at the forefront. It is important to designate which fund you would like your contributions to go to; if not designated, gifts will be attributed to the General Fund.
Where can I find offering envelopes?
Envelopes are not necessary when giving with a check. Checks can simply be dropped in the black giving boxes located in the hallway before the auditorium, and we’ll make sure it’s matched to your account. However, if you're giving cash and would like to receive giving credit, please pick up an envelope from the side of the giving boxes.
Why do you accept credit cards?
Used responsibly, credit and debit cards are an efficient tool for payments and purchases. Many people utilize them in place of checks or cash throughout the month, and then pay the balance off in full. For these people, we offer the option to give using a credit or debit card. We strongly discourage those who have ongoing credit card debt from exercising this option.
