What We Believe About Giving
Our mission is leading people in a growing relationship with Jesus Christ. We appreciate your generosity and your cooperation in supporting our church to spread its community and service opportunities.
WORSHIP SERVICES
During the weekend services (and mid-week services) we have a time of dedicating our tithes and offerings to God in prayer. This is an opportunity to give to God during the service.
ELECTRONIC GIVING
It is now possible and convenient to donate online. Using the link below, you can set up a one-time or recurring gift to Ebenezer. Once again, consider gathering together as a family to dedicate what you give in prayer, asking God to accomplish spiritual results – especially that many would come to faith in Jesus Christ.
GIFTS IN KIND
If you have real property, assets, or something you want to bequeath as a gift, please contact Phil Bingenheimer by email or phone at (803) 765-9430.
We can also mail our tithes and offerings. Our offering envelopes are available at the church. Please take time to pray, then simply place your check within the envelope, add a postage stamp and drop in the mailbox.

WHY GIVING?
TAKING THE STEP OF FAITH
When you commit to tithing, you decide in advance to faithfully give. God always blesses that kind of faith!
SIMPLIFYING YOUR LIFE
Electronic giving is simple, easy, and also reduces post office trips, postage
costs and weekly/monthly check-writing chores.
HELPING THE CHURCH TO SERVE OTHERS
When you participate in online giving, you’re also helping to streamline
administrative overhead costs – thus, putting more of your dollars to
work in the ministries.
We cannot give God anything, for everything is already His, and all we have comes from Him. We can only give him praise, thanks and honor.
Martin Luther
