Giving

For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

- Matthew 6:21
Thank you for using the Grace Temple giving options to join us in our mission of building the Kingdom of God by building people.  Reaching people with the life-giving message of Jesus.  As many people enter into a new-found relationship with Christ, please know that it couldn’t happen without your generosity. We are truly grateful for your donation and hope the convenience and simplicity of online giving will be helpful to you.

Financial giving can be divided into two categories: tithes and offerings. The Bible teaches us that we worship the Lord with our tithe, which is ten percent of our income contributed to the church on a regular basis. When we feel called to give over and above our tithe, we do so as an offering. We provide many different categories to give, Tithes(regular giving), Offerings (general donations), Benevolence(needs of others), Children ministry, Youth Ministry, Care ministry (caring for others), Building fund, and Missions.
