Mothproof, Rustproof, Thief-proof Your Investments

Jesus is a very wise but unconventional investment counselor; he cautions us about the dangers of bad investments on earth, when money invested in heaven yields eternal rewards:
Fear not, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Sell your possessions, and give to the needy. Provide yourselves with moneybags that do not grow old,with a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. (Luke 12:32-34)
At Bethlehem, we strive to honor the Lord with our "first fruits" (see Proverbs 3:9) as we give "cheerfully, generously, and regularly" (see 2 Cor. 9:6-7). We express this honoring by giving of our tithes and offerings during the "Offerings" portion of our service, by mailing our contribution in to the office, or by donating via the internet. We encourage you to give as God leads.
Automatic Withdrawals
Just as many people choose to pay their mortgages or utility payments each month through automatic withdrawals from their checking or savings accounts, Bethlehem also provides regular givers the opportunity to use the ACH system to have a portion of their tithes and offerings deducted automatically from a pre-arranged account. If you would like to arrange for automated donations, go to our electronic giving page for a list of options.
