ONLINE GIVING MAKES US MORE FAITHFUL IN TITHING
Have you considered Online Giving? Since the inception of Online Giving at SCPC in November, 2010, giving through our website has risen to 6% of Tithes & Offerings. Givers are becoming more regular and consistent and, therefore, aiding in the support of SCPC while helping themselves in their own faithfulness to the Lord. Please consider using Online Giving for your Tithes & Offerings. Contact Martha Rhoades for questions and/or help.
