β€œBlessed To Be A Blessing”

Giving

We believe faith is strengthened through both giving and receiving within our community, following Jesus’ example of generosity toward those in need. By using our resources to share God’s story, we joyfully participate in bringing life-transforming change to the world.

  • What is a tithe, what is an offering?

    In the Bible, a tithe is 10% of one’s income. An offering is when you give above and beyond your tithe, such as supporting other ministries and causes. We encourage you to take a Financial Stewardship Class to find out more about this subject and other stewardship principles addressed in the Bible.

  • How is my contribution spent?

    Your money goes to more than keeping the lights on. Every day, this church is dedicated to improving the lives of people in our local community and beyond. We participate in projects throughout the region, including a partnership with Cross of Christ Church in downtown Rochester. Your funds also go to build hospitals, schools, churches, and to providing clean food, water, and more to communities around the world. Your contribution makes it possible to do the work we were created for.

  • Are there any fees involved in online giving?

    You are given the option to pay the processing fees, but you do not have to do this. Calvary Community pays around $8000 a year in fees associated with online giving, so every time a giver covers the fees it does contribute to more money being used for ministry.

  • Can I give by check?

    Of course! Please make checks payable to β€œCalvary Community Church”. If mailing to Calvary, send to:


    Calvary Community Church of the Nazarene

    4045 E. Henrietta Rd.

    Henrietta, NY 14467

  • Can I give stock, real estate, appreciated securities, or other non-cash gifts to Calvary?
