Giving to Orchard View

Why do we give to the church?

​"You must each make up your own mind as to how much you should give. Don't give reluctantly or in response to pressure. For God loves the person who gives cheerfully." (2 Corinthians 9:7 NLT)

​

When Paul wrote about cheerful givers, he was writing about persons who had discovered the joy of living and giving generously. They were anxious to meet needs and to fund the costs that went along with sharing the good news of Jesus. We want to be those same kinds of persons. 

​

The church (any church) could not function without funds coming in to cover operational expenses such as staff salaries, utilities, educational materials, office supplies, etc. Beyond internal operational expenses, there are multiple ministries that we help support in the Grand Rapids area and beyond. 

​

Largely, donations to the church are given via check or cash on a Sunday morning during the Worship Service. It is also possible to contribute by setting up Orchard View as a "Payee" on your personal banking institution's website.  You can also give online by clicking on the "Set Up E-Giving" button below.
