Absolutely! You can make a one-time gift using a credit or debit card without creating an account or logging in. Simply enter your name, email address, and payment information to complete your gift. Your card information will not be saved.

If you prefer to give directly from your bank account (ACH), you'll need to create or log into your giving account.

Yes! While gifts may be designated to a variety of ministries and special funds, we encourage regular giving to our three primary funds: Operations, Building Use, and Missions. These funds support the ongoing work of the church and allow us to direct resources where they are needed most.

If you feel called to support a specific ministry, mission, or special project, you are always welcome to designate your gift accordingly.

Yes! Giving statements are provided quarterly. First- and third-quarter statements are sent by email, while second-quarter and year-end statements are mailed.

You can also view your giving history and current giving totals at any time by logging into your giving account. Need help accessing your account? See “How do I access my giving history and/or make changes to my giving?" in the FAQs above for step-by-step instructions.

Yes, online gifts are subject to processing fees, which vary by payment method:

• Credit/Debit Cards: 2.99% + $0.30 per transaction
• Premium Cards (American Express, Discover, etc.): 3.50% + $0.30 per transaction
• ACH (Bank Account): 1% with no additional transaction fee

Giving directly from your bank account (ACH) is the most cost-effective option, allowing more of your gift to support the church's ministries.

When making an online gift, you'll have the option to cover the processing fees. We encourage you to select this option when possible so that the full amount of your intended gift goes toward supporting the church and its ministries.

Mistakes happen! If you accidentally give the wrong amount or designate your gift to the wrong fund, please contact us as soon as possible at 309-575-3420 or finance@macombwesleyumc.com. We'll be happy to help correct the issue or discuss the available options

Stewardship is about faithfully managing and sharing the gifts God has entrusted to us, including our time, talents, and financial resources. Tithes and offerings are an important part of financial stewardship, helping sustain Wesley's worship, ministries, outreach, and daily operations. Through faithful giving, we support the work of the church and its mission in our community and beyond.

A commitment is an estimate of what you intend to give to Wesley during the coming year. Financial commitments help us plan responsibly, develop an accurate budget, and make informed decisions about staffing, ministries, and outreach opportunities.

No. Your commitment is an expression of your intended giving, not a legally binding obligation. We understand that financial circumstances can change, and there is no penalty if you are unable to fulfill your commitment. We simply ask that you prayerfully consider what you are able to give.

You can submit your annual commitment using a commitment card during our stewardship campaign or through our online commitment form. Submitting a commitment does not automatically initiate payments. You can give throughout the year using whichever giving method works best for you.

Absolutely! We understand that circumstances change. If you need to increase, decrease, or otherwise adjust your commitment, simply contact the finance office. Your commitment can be updated at any time.

Not at all! Making a financial commitment is encouraged because it helps Wesley plan for the coming year, but it is never required. Every gift is appreciated, whether or not you've submitted a commitment card.

Traditionally, a tithe is giving 10% of one's income to God through the church, while an offering is a gift given beyond the tithe.

At Wesley, we view tithing as a goal to prayerfully work toward, recognizing that faithful stewardship is a journey. Everyone is at a different place in that journey, and we encourage you to begin where you are and grow in your giving as you are able. Every gift, regardless of size, helps support the mission and ministries of the church.

Your financial commitment helps support Wesley's ongoing ministries and mission. We encourage commitments to our three primary funds: Operations, Building Use, and Missions. These funds support the church's daily operations, care of our facilities, and outreach efforts locally and around the world.
