Bulletin Version 2:

Recently, we have introduced a new and exciting way for you to contribute online.  With online giving, you can make regular automatic contributions to «CHURCH_NAME» using your credit/debit card or bank account, the same process that you may use to pay utility bills or make car payments. 

There is no fee for those that enroll.  Automatic contributions greatly benefit «CHURCH_NAME» by providing a predictable cash flow as well as decreasing the time and money the church spends on recording gifts and offertory supplies.  The system allows you to manage all aspects of your account and allows you to view online giving history.  

Please enroll in this program by visiting www.churchwebsite.net to enroll securely on line.

God bless you.

Bulletin Version 4:

As you may know, we have recently introduced a new program for electronic offertory donations.  This program has already had a positive impact on our Sunday collection.  I am hopeful that you will join other members and sign up for this service.  The program is a cost effective way for the church to receive donations.  This method has reduced the handling of cash and checks and has proven to be a safe and secure method of making a church offering. 

I am tremendously grateful that members have remained consistent in their financial generosity to the church regardless of the state of the economy.  Our increased enrollment will continue to stabilize our church finances.  If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at [Insert phone number].  To enroll in the program visit www.churchwebsite.net to enroll securely on line.

Lent

During Lent, we focus our daily activities on growing closer to Christ through an increase in prayer, fasting, and almsgiving.  It is a wonderful goal to try to extend some of the changes we make in our lives beyond the liturgical season.

Signing up for online giving is a great way to focus on almsgiving throughout the year.  It is a secure and convenient way to make a conscious decision about your financial support of our many wonderful ministries.  You can find paper enrollment forms in the church office, or you can sign up online at www.churchwebsite.net.

Sincerely yours in Christ,
«PASTOR»

Bulletin Version 10:

Easter!

Christ is risen!  As His disciples, we are called to go forth and spread the good news of Christ's Resurrection. The fruitful ministries at our church are examples of how many of you have answered, and continue to answer, that call.  To ensure such work can continue requires not only gifts of time, but also of financial help.  I ask you to prayerfully consider supporting our church with electronic donations. You can sign up online at www.churchwebsite.net.

Sincerely yours in Christ,
«PASTOR»

 

Bulletin Version 11:

Visit our secure web site at www.churchwebsite.net to enroll online.
