Online Giving
Just as you excel in everything else… in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in complete earnestness….. see that you also excel in the grace of giving.” ~ 2 Cor. 8:7
Through our willingness to give tithes and offerings, we honor God. Giving is a tremendous blessing and joy that inspires our spiritual growth and walk with God. It is God’s way of growing our faith in Him and supporting His purposes on earth – both inside and outside of the church. We encourage you to give cheerfully, understanding that it all belongs to God, and it all is meant to honor Him.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is giving online to SLBC secure and confidential?
We use a reputable online company that uses the same encryption technology used by banks and ecommerce companies to keep your data secure and safe. Online giving is treated with the same confidentiality as our worship service offerings.
How does it work?
Once you select the Give Online button, you will have the option of: 1) logging on as an existing user, 2) setting up a new account as a first time user or 3) donating with “quick-give”. After clicking on an option, simply follow the instructions provided.
What payment methods are allowed? What is ACH?
We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express and ACH (e-check). ACH is a transaction in which someone donates directly from their bank account by inputting their account and routing number. Checking accounts are recommended as most savings accounts do not allow ACH transactions.
Will I get a receipt after the transaction processes?
Yes – immediately after your gift processes, you will see a receipt on your screen and if you provided an email, you will receive a copy in your inbox as well. If you set up a recurring gift, you’ll receive an email confirmation a week before it processes as well as a receipt after it processes.
Can I change a scheduled contribution?
You can edit or delete a scheduled contribution at any time.
Is online giving tax-deductible?
SLBC is a non-profit organization. All donations given are tax-deductible as allowed by law. Online giving will be included in your end-of-year giving statement.
