Thank you for your prayers and support!
God loves a cheerful giver...and your monetary gift is completely voluntary. Did you know that one of the most important ways that we honor God is through our giving? Our giving comes not only through our monetary donations and gifts; but also through the generous donation of our time and talents.* We belong to God, for we are His creation! God's people have always been characterized by giving, but the ways, methods, and mechanisms in which they give has changed over time. All electronic transactions (whether in person or online) are a securely encrpyted experience. Giving is of your tithes (ten percent = 10% of your income) and offerings. It also includes giving of our time*, supporting in helping others, your prayers for others, remembering the poor and needy, the afflicted, those incarcerated, and those in bereavement. Our giving happens in the physical space, as well as the virtual (online) space. However, and nevertheless no matter the size of our giving, or how our giving takes place...it is the posture of our hearts that resonates with God.

I want to tithe but I don’t know how… How do I tithe?
When you pay your tithes to God, you are executing the fundamental principle of obedience to God and the reciprocal activation and avalanche of blessings God says "that there shall not be room enough to receive it" (Malachi 3:10). What a blessing that God has enacted and infinitely enabled upon the life of the tither. We believe in tithing, therefore as you cheerfully honor God in the paying of your tithes and offerings, we humbly thank you for finding this organization faithful enough to be the conduit by which you honor The Most High God! Your tithes are 10% of your income (i.e., direct earnings from employment, and/or monetary gifts you receive from others).
For instance, if you received/earned $1,000.00 your tithe would be 10% of that which is equal to $100.00. If you received/earned $1,473.29; then your tithe would be 10% of that amount, which is $147.32. Your general offerings/donations may be reflective of your tithes; or some other amount as you are able to give according to how God has blessed you.
As the scripture supports in Malachi 3:10 "Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it."
How much offering should I give?
You should give as you are able, and according to how God has blessed you. Your offering is completely voluntary.

When and where should I give my offerings?
In bringing your tithes (and offerings) into the storehouse, you may do so either in-person, online, via mobile device, (and/or by U.S. Postal service) as often as you receive monetary income and/or monetary gifts. Secure electronic paymetns are recommended in any case. And you may use the church's website here by completing and submitting the secure form to the right of this page, through the secure and encrypted PayPal system. This system quickly processes your monetary donations from a bank account/financial institution or debit card to the church safely and securely. Simply make your selection(s) from the drop-down list(s) within the electronic form.
Recurring payment of tithes and offerings, and "One-time" gifts can both be set up quickly and easily using either payment method desired.
Although the online giving option is available here to members and guests alike - if you prefer to give in-person you may do so by attending service at either of our church locations. There, you may give via check, money order, or cash donation/offering during the offertory portion of the services. For members who would rather transfer funds electronically, our online giving feature with PayPal is the most convenient option. If you would like to request a giving /contribution statement, please contact the church office at: (202) 638-0677.
Again, thank you for your prayers and your support! May God continue to bless and prosper your lives and families!!!
