Giving at West Side
At West Side we believe tithing is a spiritual discipline that all Christians are to practice. However, West Side does not exist to make money; we are here to help further the kingdom of Christ by bringing people into a life changing relationship with Jesus. We believe fiscal responsibility and good stewardship in our spending is the plan of God for both his Church and his children. If you are someone seeking God we want to stress there is no pressure for you to give anything unless you desire to. In addition to this, we believe that Christians should primarily give to their home congregation. Therefore, if you are visiting with us from another Church, you are under no obligation to tithe, instead follow your own conscience. At West Side we do teach our members that tithing is a spiritual discipline of Christian growth, not an option, but it is still in their own hands as to how they choose to give.
We now offer multiple ways to give. You can give here online, by creating a Pay Pal account and setting up your giving, through your bank account, debit card, or credit card. You can continue to give on Sunday mornings during our services through cash or check.
Our online giving partner, PayPal, charges a transaction fee along with a processing fee. If you would like the church to receive your entire tithe and offering, you have the ability to cover the processing fees. This calculator helps you figure what you total amount would be if you would like to cover the fees.
