Online Giving

Automated giving at the Vineyard is designed to help build faithfulness into your stewardship of what God has given to you. 

There are currently two ways to give automatically.

Automated Bank Debit

An Automated Bank Debit is the easiest and most effective way to automate your giving. Once you have set it up, you may update or change your giving at any time simply by contacting the Vineyard office. An additional benefit of this method is that there are no processing fees so 100% of your gift goes to the Vineyard!

To sign up, complete an auto debit form (download here) and mail or fax the completed form to the Vineyard office to have you giving automatically deducted from your checking or savings account. Full instructions are on the debit form.

On-line giving through Google checkout

You can make a one-time (for now) donation online which is securely processed through Google's checkout system. The process is safe, simple, and secure and your bank or debit card information is used by Google for the sole purpose of processing this transaction and never shared with us. To start, enter your donation amount below and click on the Donate button. You will be forwarded to Google's secure website where you will enter your information and complete the transaction.

4 Benefits to Automating Your Giving

• You are taking a step of faith – When you sign up to give automatically you are deciding in advance to faithfully give. God blesses that kind of faith!
• You make your life a little bit simpler – You don’t need to remember whether you gave this month. And if you are out of town, or on vacation, you don’t need to think about it.
• You will be helping the church – Every person who gives through automatic giving makes our record keeping easier.
• You can focus on worship at church – Instead of having to get out a pen and write out an envelope and check, you can focus entirely on worship.
