Four Ways to Give
Offering Boxes in Lobby
We have two offering boxes in our lobby outside the worship center. You can place cash or a check into an envelope and place your offering in the box.
Send a Check Through Your Bank
Log into your bank's online bill pay and set up a one-time or recurring payment to be mailed to the church address:
Maranatha Baptist Church
4663 Trabue Road
Columbus, OH 43228
Mail A Check
If you have paper checks available at home and don't want to deal with online payments or use the offering boxes in the lobby, simply mail a check to our church address:
Maranatha Baptist Church
4663 Trabue Road
Columbus, OH 43228
The Best Way to Give ONLINE
Setting up an Electronic Bank Transfer is the most effective way to maximize your online giving. As you will see below, an Electronic Bank Transfer is the most economical method to process gifts and maximize the reach of your gift. Additionally, Tithe.ly gives you the option of covering the processing fees, which allows us to utilize even more of your online gift. Please contact us if you have any questions.

For every $100 you give (unless you cover the fees):
-
Electronic Bank Transfer charges 1% of your transaction, plus 30 cents (Total Giving: $98.71)
-
Visa, Discover or Master Card debit or credit charges 2.9% of your transaction, plus 30 cents (Total Giving: $96.88)
-
America Express credit charges 3.5% of your transaction, plus 30 cents (Total Giving: $96.32)
​
As you can imagine, these fees add up when multiplied by greater amounts and over multiple gifts a month.
There are several benefits to ONLINE giving
SIMPLICITY
Many times it's easier to set up an automatic, recurring payment than it is to write a check or bring cash every time you give. Also, if you don't have any cash on-hand to give as a love offering for a visiting missionary or to provide toward our deacon fund which is used to help our church bless those who are in need, you have the convenience of using your device to give online.
​
SECURITY
We utilize an encrypted secure website for our giving portal to ensure protection of your sensitive personal information and giving history.
​
TRANSPARENCY
You have the ability to quickly see your online giving history directly through our giving portal instead of requesting a personalized report.
​
DISCLAIMER
Giving should be done cheerfully and out of the abundance that the Lord provides; it should not be done out of coercion, guilt, or obligation. Please do not go into debt in order to give to the church.
