Two Ways to Give

1. Global Treasury Services Giving

The most common method of giving is giving through GTS (Global Treasury Services). These cash gifts are sent to GTS with the designated accounting information for the receiving ministry or are given through the online donation process. These gifts will be recorded on your church’s Church Giving Report.

2. Point-to-Point Giving
A point-to-point cash/non-cash gift may be channeled directly to the Ten Percent approved receiving ministry if it meets one of the following criteria:

• The ministry is an approved USA/Canada Nazarene Compassionate Ministry Center.
• The ministry is an approved USA/Canada New Start.
• The point-to-point gift has been approved by the Ten Percent Committee.

To receive recognition for point-to-point gifts, your church will need to submit a request to Stewardship Ministries for approval. You may submit a request by using the appropriate method below.

2009-2010 Assembly Year Requests

Form to Request Ten Percent Recognition

• Because Point-to-Point gifts are not sent through GTS they will not be reflected on the reports supplied by GTS. This is why it is important to add the amount to the Annual Pastor's Report.

2010-2011 Assembly Year Requests
If you are in your 2010-2011 assembly year, all Point-to-Point requests can now be submitted through the Funding the Mission application found at www.fundingthemission.org. By submitting request through the application, we are able to show the giving credit on your church's transaction summary.
