Denver, Colorado … As we go through a period of suspended church services, it is important for us to continue to remember the faithfulness of the Lord by returning our tithes and offerings. God is always faithful to His word and it is through giving that we express our love to Him and continue to move His work forward. Hebrews 10:23 NLT says: “Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep His promise.”

Since we will not be meeting together as churches for a while, below are instructions as to how we can give electronically.

HOW DOES A CHURCH SIGN UP FOR ADVENTISTGIVING?

  • Signing up with AdventistGiving is a fairly simple process.  The attached form just needs to be completed by the church treasurer and the pastor, and then it should be forwarded to [email protected].  She will sign it and forward it to the NAD to complete your registration.

HOW DO I GIVE THROUGH ADVENTISTGIVING?

  • Giving through AdventistGiving is also easy.  Many churches have elected to put a link on their websites that will direct people to their AdventistGiving site, but donors can also donate directly through the adventistgiving.org website or through the AdventistGiving app that you can download from the App Store or Google Play.

ADVENTISTGIVING INSTRUCTIONS

  • Go to adventistgiving.org and start typing typing the name of the church that you wish to donate to in the center box.
  • As you type, a list of churches that match that name will appear.   The (Enrolled)at the end of the name tells you whether that church has signed up for AdventistGiving or not.
  • Select the name of the church you wish to donate to.  You will be taken directly to the online Tithe & Offering envelope for that church.
  • After filling out the envelope, hit continue.  You will then be asked to choose whether you wish to log in, register for an account, or continue as a guest.  If you choose “Guest”, you do have the option of giving anonymously, if you do not wish to receive a tax receipt.
  • You may then pay with a credit or debit card, or with an electronic check.  We do want to mention that the fees are significantly lower for the conference with electronic checks as opposed to credit or debit cards.
