Ways to Give

Tithes

The word tithe means one-tenth. In biblical tradition, tithing represents setting apart a tenth of one's increase or income as an act of honoring God.

Scriptural Reference: Malachi 3:10; Proverbs 3:9–10

At Believers International Ministries, we teach biblical principles of stewardship, generosity, and honoring God with our resources.

Offerings

An offering is a voluntary financial gift presented to God beyond or apart from one's tithe. Offerings may support general ministry operations, missions, outreach programs, special projects, benevolence, or other Kingdom initiatives.

Scriptural Reference: 2 Corinthians 9:6–8

Both tithes and offerings represent opportunities to worship God through faithful stewardship and intentional generosity.

Yes. Believers International Ministries has received an official IRS determination letter recognizing the ministry as a tax-exempt organization under Internal Revenue Code §501(c)(3).

Eligible tithes, offerings, and charitable contributions may be tax-deductible to the extent permitted by applicable federal tax law.

Tax deductibility depends upon the nature of the contribution and the donor's individual circumstances.

Donors should consult their tax professionals for guidance regarding charitable deductions.

Yes.

Believers International Ministries welcomes voluntary one-time contributions.

Donors may choose to make a single gift toward the ministry's general operations or an available ministry initiative.

There is no required donation amount for voluntary offerings or charitable gifts.

Yes, when using a designated giving platform that supports recurring contributions.

Recurring giving allows donors to schedule automatic charitable contributions according to their selected amount and frequency.

Available recurring schedules depend upon the designated payment provider and may include weekly, biweekly, or monthly giving.

Recurring giving is entirely voluntary and allows donors to support the ministry consistently.

Yes.

Recurring contributions may be modified or discontinued through the procedures provided by the payment processing platform.

Depending on the platform, donors may be able to manage their contributions through a donor account, an email confirmation, or an authorized support request.

Canceling recurring giving does not affect church membership, ministry participation, or access to regularly available worship services.

Believers International Ministries maintains contribution records and provides charitable giving acknowledgments through its established donation administration process.

For donations made electronically, a payment confirmation may be issued through the authorized payment provider.

A payment confirmation is not necessarily the same as a tax-compliant charitable contribution acknowledgment.

Additional documentation may be provided when necessary to satisfy applicable tax reporting requirements.

Donors are encouraged to retain their donation receipts and payment records.

Yes. Believers International Ministries provides annual contribution statements upon request for eligible donations recorded in the donor's name.

An annual contribution statement summarizes the recorded charitable contributions associated with the donor for the applicable calendar year.

These statements may assist donors with their personal financial records and tax preparation.

Annual statements will include the information required for charitable contribution acknowledgment, as applicable.

To request an annual contribution statement, please contact the Believers International Ministries administration office through the designated Giving Statement Request form on our website.

Please provide:

• Your full legal name.
• Your email address.
• Your preferred contact information.
• The calendar year for which the statement is requested.
• Any additional information necessary to identify your recorded contributions.

For donor privacy and financial security, BIM may verify the donor's identity before releasing contribution records.

Statements will be provided through an appropriate secure communication method.

Giving Statement Request: Giving Statement Request Form

Believers International Ministries may provide opportunities to contribute toward specific ministry departments, missions, outreach programs, charitable initiatives, or approved ministry projects.

When available, donors may indicate their preferred giving designation during the contribution process.

A designation request does not automatically establish a legally restricted gift.

Where BIM expressly accepts a donor-restricted contribution, the ministry will administer the contribution according to the accepted restriction and applicable law.

Unrestricted donations remain under BIM's discretion and control and may be allocated toward the ministry's operational priorities and charitable mission.

If a contribution was unrestricted or merely expressed a nonbinding preference, BIM may direct those funds toward another ministry need consistent with its religious and charitable mission.

If BIM expressly accepted a legally binding restriction, any proposed change in the use of those funds will be handled in accordance with the accepted gift terms and applicable law.

Believers International Ministries intends to process online contributions through an authorized payment provider using appropriate transaction security measures.

Payment details are handled according to the procedures and security policies of the designated platform.

Donors should use only official ministry-approved payment links.

BIM will never ask donors to send full credit card numbers, banking passwords, or other sensitive payment credentials through ordinary email.

Charitable contributions are generally treated as completed gifts rather than purchases of goods or services.

However, donors who believe a contribution was made in error, duplicated, or processed without proper authorization should promptly contact ministry administration.

Refund requests will be reviewed individually in accordance with applicable law, ministry policies, donor restrictions, and payment processing requirements.

Yes.

Church membership is not required to make a voluntary charitable contribution to Believers International Ministries.

Members, visitors, families, organizations, and individuals who desire to support the ministry's mission are welcome to contribute.

Making a donation does not automatically establish church membership or confer membership privileges.

Financial gifts support the mission and operation of Believers International Ministries.

Depending upon the ministry's needs and priorities, contributions may support:

• Worship services and ministry gatherings.
• Biblical education and discipleship.
• Evangelism and community outreach.
• Youth and family ministry.
• Missions and charitable initiatives.
• Ministry facilities and operational expenses.
• Media, broadcasting, and digital outreach.
• Ministry leadership, administration, and organizational infrastructure.

BIM is committed to the responsible stewardship, administration, and appropriate financial oversight of resources entrusted to the ministry.
