a.  Select whether you want to make a One-time Gift or a Repeating Gift (we call this the "contribution type").

  §         Select one-time payment or

  §         Repeating payment to set up a recurring gift that will be withdrawn from your bank account on whatever schedule you decide

If you select "repeating payment," the giving page will later ask you to create a login and password, so that you can securely log in to the site in the future to change your giving schedule.

Also, 5 days before each gift is automatically withdrawn from your bank account, you will receive an email notice reminding you of the pending withdrawal. If you want to cancel a payment, you can log in to the giving page and cancel or change your giving schedule.

b.  Choose the Church Funds to which you want to give and the Amount you want to give.

One fund will always show up on the funds list, such as "General Fund."

The list of available funds you may give to may change from time to time to allow you give to such things as the "Elder Fund."

You may give to as many of the available funds as you wish by selecting each fund and entering an amount for the fund selected.

c.  Enter your Personal Information

This information will be kept confidential by Good Shepherds Bank, in the same manner as you have come to expect from your own personal bank, and will be used only to verify your identity and the source (bank account) of the gift.

Remember, items marked with a red asterisk (Ö) are required to complete your gift.
