Give

We are freed to give because God has freely given to us in Christ.

At South Cities Church, we celebrate the truth that through our union with Christ, we have been given every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places (Ephesians 1:3). Therefore, we are free to give generously, sacrificially, and joyfully knowing that everything of ultimate importance is already ours. We know that we have been "enriched in every way to be generous in every way, which through us will produce thanksgiving to God" (1 Corinthians 9:11). And it is our aim to steward the finances of our church with wisdom and integrity for the advancement of the Kingdom of God. We only ask that you give with a cheerful heart without compulsion, because it is God that loves a cheerful giver (2 Corinthians 9:7).

What is the processing fee?

Any electronic form of giving has an associated fee attached to the gift. In the past, Bethlehem Baptist Church has covered these fees, which have amounted to roughly $28,000/year for the South campus. Moving forward, South Cities Church is providing the congregation the option to cover these fees.

An ACH (bank account & routing number) transfer will incur a $0.30 fee per transaction regardless of the total.
($100 donation = $100.30)

A debit/credit card transfer will incur a fee of $0.30 per transaction and 2.9% of the total gift.
($100 donation = $103.20)
