GRACE CHURCH OFFERING

In the Grace EFC note to our church family, you read that due to our concern about your wellbeing

and the Government restrictions surrounding Covid-19 (Corona Virus), Sunday services at the church have been suspended until further notice. You also see that Grace Church is committed to providing as much spiritual, emotional and physical support as we can. Our pastors, and office administrators are busy, utilities are operational, the missionaries around the world are still supported and other basic expenses continue. We pray that this virus will be short lived, but we must prepare for a longer period of social distancing.

Last fall the congregation accepted an annual budget. We pray that you will continue to support God’s work by Grace EFC in Thunder Bay. The church Board will be actively looking at how we may reduce or defer expenses.
Since we will not have Sunday services at the church, we need to find an alternative method of receiving your offerings.

For those who are or can do internet banking, we believe that e-transfer or interac transfer will be easiest. This involves your sending your offering to the church using your bank and a NEW e-mail address at the church. This email address should only be used for sending your Tithes and Offering to the church, please do not share this email address with people as a way of contacting the church. If you can e-transfer, the office will need to work with you to get the system set up for you. To find out how to access our new email please contact the church office at 343-4263.

Each of the major Canadian banks have a tutorial, listed on each button below, on how to do e-transfer. Some of you may not have a digital banking option and prefer cheques or cash. If this applies to you, there will be people at the church office during this period of social distancing to receive cheques or cash. We can also arrange for your offering to be picked up. Please call the office to arrange a time for you to deliver your offering or to have it picked up.

God’s work, through the Grace Church family, will continue. God has been generous with his gifts. We pray that you will be generous and remain committed with your gifts to support His work.

In His service
Jim Taylor on behalf of the Grace EFC Board
