Online giving while on vacation, by Laura White
Tonight I arrived home from vacation and sat down to pay my bills. As I began I thought “I wish I could pay my tithe now instead of waiting till Sunday” and remembered I can go online and do just that. It was quick and easy to set up my account and take care of that. I think it was almost as simple as writing a check, getting a tithe envelop, and filling in the information but I liked it better because I now know it’s paid and out of my account first. To me that is so nice because sometimes it takes longer for my check to process yet now I feel free knowing all my finances for this pay period are taken care of.
I love to give online! I never even have to think about it. I get paid every other Friday so for me I have my account set up to take my tithe out before I even wake up on Friday morning!! LOVE IT!! Also, I have found another benefit is that I can actually SEE everything I have given for the year. There is no waiting until the end of the year to reconcile my records. I simply log in to my account periodically and see that everything matches. Then at the end of the year I don’t have to wait for my statement to be mailed to me. I can print it off myself and go file!
