We appreciate your heart of giving.
Giving is one of the ways we show our love for God and demonstrate His priority in our lives. We give to the Lord through the local church. God entrusts the church with these funds to expand His Kingdom. There are various ways you can give to the Lord through Crossroads:
- Personal checks: give on the weekends or mail to Crossroads Church, 41386 Fremont Blvd, Fremont, CA 94538.
- Your bank's bill pay system: send to the above address. Talk with your bank about setting this up if you need assistance.
100% of what you give via the above 2 methods goes to Crossroads.
- Debit, check, Visa, or Master cards: via the "On-Line Giving" link at the top of this page. Up to 3% of what you give will go as fees to the card companies and online giving company. Online giving is safe and secure, meeting industry standards. You can give on a one-time basis or set up recurring contributions. How to get started:
- Click on the "On-Line Giving" link at the top of this page.
- For the first time, set up a user ID (email address) and password. For subsequent times you will log in using your ID and password.
- Provide contact and credit/debit/check card info.
- Indicate the amount of your gift and which fund the gift should go to. For one-time gifts, you can give to multiple funds at one time.
- To set up recurring donations, click on the Auto-Tithe button. You can set up multiple Auto-Tithes for different church funds.
- E-check: via the "On-Line Giving" link on this page. About 1% of what you give will go as fees to the online giving company. Follow the directions above for creating a log-in profile and for logging in. After you log in, you will see a picture of a check that you can click on. Then enter the requested information in the electronic check form. Note that at the bottom left of the electronic check you will need to designate your contribution to one of the church funds. There is a drop-down box for this purpose.
- Stocks, bonds, securities, property: contact the church office at 510-651-0301 or linnea@crossroadsfremont.org.
About Credit Cards: While we allow the use of credit cards, we encourage the use of a personal check or payment through your bank's bill pay system for the following reasons:
- Many people do pay off their credit cards each month, but there are also many who don't. We discourage people from going into debt and incurring interest on gifts given to Crossroads. We offer giving by credit card as a convenience for those who manage their finances responsibly.
- With personal check or bill pay, 100% of your gift goes to the church. With credit/debit/check cards, up to 3% of your gift will go as fees to the card companies and on-line giving company.
Our Policies:
- Your personal information is handled securely through EasyTithe, our on-line giving company. Go to www.easytithe.com if you would like to learn more about the company and the security measures they take.
- Your information will not be given to third parties, other than to process your giving payments.
- You can give as an immediate, one-time gift, or you can schedule one or more donations through the Auto-Tithe function. Contributions scheduled through Auto-Tithe can be cancelled or changed prior to the date scheduled. Once a contribution has been processed, it cannot be cancelled.
- Annual giving statements are mailed by the end of January each year. If your address has changed, please email your full name, former address, and new address and phone number to linnea@crossroadsfremont.org.
- If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Linnéa at the church office at linnea@crossroadsfremont.org, or call 510-651-0301.
