When you study the Bible, it is very clear that God wants those who are followers of Jesus to give financial offerings to His Church. Jesus made it clear in his teachings that how we use our money reflects the priorities of our heart & that giving to His Church is one of the things that helps us to keep our focus on the things that are most important to Him.

For many years, giving financial gifts to the church was done exclusively during worship services as offering plates were passed. However, with changes in technology & the use of debit/credit cards as a primary way to pay for things, it has become clear that the Church needs to provide additional methods for people to give their gifts to God.

At Otterbein, we have many different methods available for people to give their gifts to God. We encourage you to use whatever method is most convenient to you & will help you follow Jesus’ teachings about giving to His Church.

Offering Baskets at Worship Service Doors

You can give using cash or check during the offering in the worship services. If you wish to designate a specific fund for your giving (General Fund, Building Fund, Local2Global), you will need to use an offering envelope. They are available in the seat backs in the Worship Center or you can pick them up at Connection Point in the lobby. If you do not designate a fund, your gift will be used in the General Fund.

Giving Kiosk in the Church Lobby

You can give using your debit/credit card at the Giving Kiosk in the church lobby. We have two Giving Kiosks which are located near the entrances to the lobby.
