There’s a common assumption out there that churches are always asking for money. When you fill in the gaps for your church, you can easily dispel that assumption.
A brief 1-2 sentence "Why" statement is a tremendous way to so so - as well as help cultivate a culture of generosity.

Pre-Written Why Statements You Can Use!
For God so Loved...That He Gave
The death and resurrection of Jesus represent the most generous gift ever given – when the King of Glory gave up everything in order to reconcile us to God.
Giving cheerfully, sacrificially, and consistently is a part of our worship. When we are generous with others, we remind one another of the great generosity of our God.
If you would like to make a one-time gift or set up recurring automatic giving online please follow the link below. Thank you for your generosity!
Your Generosity Moves Ministry Forward
Giving is a part of our worship to God. It has been said that you can tell nearly everything about a person by the way they spend their money.
Whether you are tithing in obedience to Malachi 3:10 or contributing over and above your tithe as an act of generosity, your gift will help us minister God’s hope and healing to our community and beyond.
Thanks!
Donate To [Church Name Here]
God influences the world through his people. He gives to us so He can give through us. The Bible tells us that everything we have is a gift from God (1 Chronicles 29:14).
As you give both faithfully and willingly, the world is changed for the glory of God: the gospel is preached, lives are touched, people are fed, bodies are healed, churches are built; and you, in turn, are blessed by God so that you can give again.
Everything you donate is tax-deductible, and will be completely used to further what God is currently doing through our ministry locally and around the world. If you have any questions about how we use your gifts, please don't hesitate to contact us.
You don't give TO a church, you give THROUGH a church.
Here at [CHURCH NAME], we believe God has called us to [mission or impact statement here]. We're not here to be blessed, but to be a pipeline of blessing to others.
When you donate, we want you to recognize your gift impacts lives of individuals, both locally and globally through our ministries and the ministries we support. We believe the Church is the hope of the world, and want to invite you to be a part of what God is doing here and abroad. Thanks for your continuing partnership with us!
