|
We receive many blessings from the Lord – our talents, finances, opportunities, possessions – and in return He asks that we give back only a portion. It’s through this commitment that we enable more hearts to be reached, more lives to be changed, more souls to be stirred, more families to be brought together and more hope to be shared.
With God, there is as much receiving as there is giving. And we are thankful for the resources with which we have been entrusted. Everything from donating a one-time gift to scheduling an ongoing contribution, you can do it here. GIVE NOW

| F.A.Q. |
| Where does my money go? |
When you give online, you’ll see that your money goes directly to the General Fund account for the church, which supports the entire ministry, from everyday expenses such as paying the light bill to any missions or special works being undertaken by the church. From time to time, you will also be able to give to designated funds such as the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering for International Missions. GIVE NOW
|
| Can I schedule recurring donations? |
|
Yes, you can specify whether you want your contribution made one time, weekly, twice per month, monthly, quarterly, or yearly. And you can set up as many schedules as you like, so it is possible to give a monthly gift as well as a weekly one.**
**Note: When you schedule a recurring donation, a small validation fee (ten to thirty cents) may pend on your account but WILL NOT be charged or posted to your account. It is for validation purposes only. After 2-3 days it will disappear from your account. GIVE NOW
|
| Will I still receive a contribution statement? |
|
Yes, your year-end giving statement will be available at the church or it can be mailed directly to your home address.
|
| What if I need to change credit card information, or transaction date, or the amount of my contribution? |
| You can view, edit, or delete a scheduled contribution at any time, including the credit card, date, frequency, and amount as long as you created an account on the giving page. GIVE NOW |
| Is online giving secure? |
Yes. We’ve taken steps to ensure that the giving process is safe and secure from beginning to end. We take security very seriously. All information is encrypted with 256 bit SSL encryption. SSL is an acronym for “Secure Socket Layer,” a security protocol that provides communications privacy over the internet. It is the same technology used by banks and e-commerce companies such as Amazon.com to keep your information safe and secure during transactions. GIVE NOW

| Are there other ways to give? |
|
Yes, there are several ways you can make a contribution to the church:
1. Use an offering envelope on Sunday mornings. You can place cash or a check into an offering envelope and place it into the offering plate during the worship service. Offering envelopes are available in the pew racks or from an usher.
2. Mail a check. You can mail a check or money order to the following address:
First Baptist Church of Mira Mesa
Attention: Teller Committee
10770 Rickert Road

3. Online Banking. Through the online bill payment service of your bank, you can have your bank mail a check to the church and deduct the amount from your account. Use the same address as above.
4. Donate Stocks & Bonds. Donating gifts of stocks or bonds may provide significant tax benefits to the donor. If you are interested in making such a gift, please contact the church’s Business Administrator by calling 858-566-3671.
