If you're ever in Rexburg on a Sunday evening come and join me. 27 holes and nobody else is out there, it's a little slice of heaven. -
I always thought a slice was bad in golf. Maybe that's what you get for golfing on Sunday?Originally posted by RC Vikings View Post

Online tithing payment. Soon to be a reality.

i wonder if this will replace the current method of paying directly to the Church instead of your home ward.Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

The real question is will the bishop have access to your tithing info? Many people pay directly to the church for the privacy."Friendship is the grand fundamental principle of Mormonism" - Joseph Smith Jr.Comment

The Church's patriarchy shines through even in the FAQ to online donations:
Q9. My son wants to make an online donation from his savings account. Is there a minimum amount he has to donate through an online donation?
A9. Yes. Currently, your donation must be greater than $1.00 to donate online."I think it was King Benjamin who said 'you sorry ass shitbags who have no skills that the market values also have an obligation to have the attitude that if one day you do in fact win the PowerBall Lottery that you will then impart of your substance to those without.'"

Maybe. The fast offerings can be directed to the ward fund, but it doesn't say whether the donors of those funds will be transparent to local leaders. FAQ 16 below addresses questions about individual donations, directing donors to the FAQ or the ward clerk. Does that mean the clerk/bishop has access to the individual donation information? I don't think so.Originally posted by Sullyute View Post
Q3. If I make a fast offering donation online, will the donation be available to assist those in need in my home ward or branch?
A3. Yes, your online fast offerings donation is allocated to your ward or branch just as if you had given the donation to a member of your bishopric or branch presidency.Q16. I have a question about one of my donations. Where do I go for help?
A16. Most of your questions can be answered by looking at the Answers to General Questions section of Help, or by speaking with your ward or branch clerk."I think it was King Benjamin who said 'you sorry ass shitbags who have no skills that the market values also have an obligation to have the attitude that if one day you do in fact win the PowerBall Lottery that you will then impart of your substance to those without.'"

I'm guessing yes, based on this:Originally posted by Sullyute View Post
I'm guessing it will show up in MLS like any donation paid the traditional way.Q11. When I reviewed my previous donations, I noticed I made a mistake and put my donation in the Fast Offerings category instead of in Tithing, where I wanted it. Can I change a completed donation?
A11. No, completed donations cannot be edited. However, you can print a copy of your completed donation, take it to your ward or branch financial clerk, and ask him to correct the donation category for you on the ward or branch computer."Seriously, is there a bigger high on the whole face of the earth than eating a salad?"--SeattleUte

I'm seeing this all over FB. The Church must be doing something right to have people get falling-all-over-themselves excited about new and even easier ways to hand over their hard-earned cash.

The bishop called me several weeks ago to ask if I had been making my tithing payments directly to Salt Lake. "Nope. But we're doing better this year." "Oh. Okay."I told him he was a goddamn Nazi Stormtrooper.Comment

BOOM!!
The Church Online Donations website will be rolled out to congregations in the US throughout 2015, and the Church will notify local leaders when it is available in their area.
"Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. UchtdorfComment

Why are you upset about this? Does this mean that all contribution numbers will be sent back to local authorities? I didn't see that in the press release.Dio perdona tante cose per un’opera di misericordia
