ONLINEGIVING

While our flesh, the culture in which we live, and the world consistently bombard us with the notion that life is all about getting, the scriptures offer a radical alternative . . . that life is all about giving! In fact, giving is one of the most Christ-like things an individual can do.

We at New Life believe that God is raising up a whole new generation of radicals who, filled with the heart of the Father are simply looking for ways and opportunities to give it away through their time, talents, and treasure.

With more and more things reaching for our pocket books and demanding our resources it is important that we willing choose to give our best and first portion to the Lord. For the Word of God tells us that "it is He that gives us the power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant!" In fact, there is nothing that you and I have that did not come from God in the first place. Wow! That´s an incredible thought, isn´t it? I mean, have you ever really given that much thought? For without God we would not even have the ability to learn or excel in our fields in order to earn a living, whereby we can take care of our needs and obligations. For God is the source of all wisdom. In fact, in bringing our resources back to God we are making a declaration of just Who is our source, and more importantly Who is our God!

God promises us that when we give into the Kingdom that He will bless it and cause it to be multiplied back to us, thereby not only meeting the needs we have, but also giving us an abundance for every good work.

Now, technology makes it even easier for you to be a radical giver and for New Life Covenant Church (NLCC) to manage and account for your generous gifts. Online giving has several benefits:

• It´s easy. No more fumbling for your wallet or a pen and your checkbook during the offering. You can spend more time focused on God and what He has to say to you during the service. You may also use this option to pay for other church related activities such as advances, camps, and conferences.
• It´s simple. Fill in our online giving form once and you no longer have to remember if you gave during the month or scramble around hunting a postage stamp in order to mail your gift while on vacation. Of course, you can log on as often as you wish to make changes.
• It´s consistent. Online giving automatically transfers funds from your account to NLCC´s account at whatever interval you choose (one time, weekly, monthly, quarterly, etc.). This allows NLCC´s to avoid dips in giving during the summer months or on bad weather Sundays.
• It´s traceable. Giving electronically makes NLCC´s record keeping easier and provides you with detailed reports of your giving.

The information you submit is securely encrypted and will only be used by NLCC to fulfill your selected financial transaction(s). We will never sell or rent your information to another party.

A word of caution - Online giving is being provided as a convenience to you, allowing you to give by using a check card, debit card, or credit card. However, NLCC does not encourage anyone to enter into debt to give or fulfill a pledge. If you use a credit card, make sure you are able to pay off your credit card bill when it comes due.
