Ways to Give Your Tithes & Offerings

 During the pandemic, we exercised physical distancing by opening electronic forms of accepting Tithes & Offerings.  When attending in-person services on Saturday mornings, you can drop off your Tithes & Offerings in-person. Alternatively, you can also use one of our electronic options below. 


There are a few ways to give back to God. For every option, it is important to indicate which account funds should be applied to and how much to allocate to each account. If this is missing, funds will be directed to the Local Church Budget.


If you have any questions or need additional information that is not listed here, feel free to contact our Treasury team at treasurer@ephesussdac.org

INTERAC E-TRANSFER

We have worked with the bank to set up Auto-deposits.  If your bank participates in Interac E-transfer, you may utilize this option to transfer your Tithes & Offerings.  Most banks and financial institutions use this method.  If you are unsure, please call your bank directly to find out if they participate and how to perform an E-transfer

We have worked with the bank to set up Auto-deposits.  If your bank participates in Interac E-transfer, you may utilize this option to transfer your Tithes & Offerings.  Most banks and financial institutions use this method.  If you are unsure, please call your bank directly to find out if they participate and how to perform an E-transfer. Some banks charge a fee for this type of transaction so be sure to find that out as well.

1. Set Up a New Payee

If you would like to send E-transfers, you will need to set up a new Payee.  You will only need to set up a new Payee once.  To set up Ephesus Seventh-day Adventist Church as a new Payee, use the following email address (it is important that you enter this email accurately): tnorthtreasurer@adventistontario.org 


2. Indicate where you want the funds to go in the Message section
When sending an e-transfer, there is a section for a "Message".  Indicate in the Message/Comments/Notes field, the accounts you would like to allocate funds to. For example: Joe Smith is setting up an e-transfer and his offering is for $310.00. Joe has indicated in the Message field: "200-Tithes/100-Church Budget/10-Building".  Joe is informing the Treasury team that that he is allocating $200 to Tithes, $100 to Church Budget and $10 to the Building fund.


The Message section usually has a limit on how many letters you can include. If you are unable to fit all the information in this field or wish to include additional information, you can send an email to our Treasury team with a list of all the accounts and how much to allocate to.

3. To ensure you receive a tax receipt, provide all personal information

To ensure that you receive a tax receipt at the end of the calendar year, send a follow-up email. 

  • To proceed with this step, in the Message field of your e-transfer, type "Email sent" and proceed with sending your e-transfer.
  • In the email that you will send to the Treasury team, please try to send the email from the same email account that you use for e-banking. 
  • In the subject, indicate "E-transfer sent for" then indicate your name.
  • In the body of the email, indicate your Name, your Address, your Phone Number and list every account and how much you would like to allocate to each account. 
  • If your email address is different than your e-banking email, please also indicate the e-banking email address.
  • Send the email to: treasurer@ephesussdac.org or the same email used to set up the Payee
