    CHURCH-WIDE: INFORMATION

    What Now_ - Finals - HD Title Slide

    Spring Focus
    This spring in our canopies we will take 8 weeks to work through the question, What Now? If we want to be people who want to pattern our lives in the way Christ demonstrated, we want to create a space where we can talk about what we’ve learned from the Big Story of Scripture (our focus last fall) and how we put that good news into practice in our current reality.

    We want to create spaces where we can hold loving conversations about how we live with an identity firmly rooted in Christ, yet engage the real world with genuine love and care. This semester, we want to respond to real world stuff from a Christlike perspective. So, here’s how we’re going to go about that -

    Our staff & discipleship team have chosen 8 topics we want to talk about intentionally within our canopy spaces, 8 pieces of our current culture that we feel are worth our time to think deeply about and hold healthy, grace-filled, loving conversations together, so that we might make intentional, thoughtful choices and approaches to these topics that radiate the love of Christ and his good news as we engage with the culture we find ourselves in today. The topics include the following:

    If you lead a canopy, we would like to invite you to a lunch we will host at the Buffalo campus on Sunday, March 3 at 12:15. If you're interested in joining a canopy, reach out to Katy@grandviewchristian.org or Evan@grandviewchristian.org for more details.

    CANOPIES

    What is a Canopy?
    In an amazing natural phenomenon called “canopy shyness,” trees in some forests grow in patterns that allow light to permeate the forest below. The whole forest can be healthy and grow together by keeping space in the canopy. This is the idea behind Canopy at Grandview.

    Our Canopies are small groups who come together once a week, every other week, or once a month. Whatever your fancy, there is a Canopy group for you. Let us help you get connected into an existing Canopy or help you start a new one. For more information, contact Katy Woodward.

    Canopy Groups
    Here is a list of some of our current Canopy Groups.  If you would like to join a canopy or get more information about our canopies, fill out our Life at Grandview Form.

     

    Tuesday Women's Bible Study Group
    This group of ladies gathers to study the Bible, pray together, and stay connected to one another.
    They meet every Tuesday from 2-3:30pm in the Virginia Street Room. All women are welcome to join them.

    Calling Group
    This group serves Grandview’s shut-ins, those in the hospital, and those in need of pastoral care. They meet at our Buffalo Campus each Tuesday morning at 9:45am. This is a great way to meet new people and care for others. New members are always welcome.

    Widows Might
    All widows are invited to participate in this canopy. They meet once a month usually for an activity, lunch, and fellowship. For more information, or if you need a ride, contact the church office.

    GIVING

    We are excited to share with you the following ways to give. If you have any questions, you can contact the church office or our Treasurer - Brandon Rogers.

    Use the Church Center App: Download from Google Play or Apple App Store. (Links at https://churchcenter.com) At bottom of screen, click the Give button. Give to your choice of funds, as one-time gifts, or schedule recurring gifts, using a debit/credit card or directly from your bank account (ACH). If you want to “split” your gift between two or more funds, you will need to Give Online or Text-To-Give (See next two items below)

    Give Online (Church Center): Go to https://grandviewchristian.churchcenter.com/giving. This is the same Church Center App but viewed online as a webpage. You can give in the same ways described above. And here you can split your gift between two or more funds, easily.

    Text-To-Give (Church Center): Text the “$” dollar amount you want to give to “84321” and you will get a reply text link to Church Center’s web page allowing you to give in the same ways described above. Give to a specific fund, or split funds in your text message. (For example, to give $40 Total by giving $10 to each online fund, you would text “$10 Buffalo $10 Cityview $10 Unreachable $10 Partnership”) You can use the “bolded” words as shown in the example for the funds, or else you will have to type the full fund names as shown below.

    Available Funds for Online Electronic Giving:
    General-Fund-Buffalo - For discretional spending for Buffalo Campus, per budget. Used where needed most.

    General-Fund-Cityview  - For discretional spending for Cityview Campus, per budget. Used where needed most.

    Unreachable-Capital-Campaign - Established to pay off Church Mortgage, launching Cityview, and other improvements.

    Partnership-Fund - Separate Fund for privately and confidentially helping members and others in need.

    If you need help with anything above, or want to give electronically to a fund not listed above, or if you want to give electronically in memory of a member who as passed away, please contact the Church Treasurer, Brandon Rogers, for assistance at treasurer@grandviewchristian.org.

    FREE Electronic ACH Giving / Covering Credit Card Costs (Optional): In the past, members asked to “voluntarily” cover credit card gift costs which was hard to do as costs were variable. Now, costs are lower & fixed, so you can easily elect to cover those costs just by checking a box when giving. Totally Optional! If you do so, the extra amount is added to your gift. The net gift amount appears on all receipts & statements.
    ***Checking account (ACH) gifts are essentially FREE to Grandview***The actual cost paid is $0.30 cents per gift (less than a postage stamp), and you can optionally cover that cost if you wish. If you do not, a donor has pledged to cover, on behalf of Grandview, all the $0.30 cent fees for any ACH gifts on Church Center. The anonymous donor wants all electronic Church Center checking account (ACH) giving to be free to both Grandview and you!

    Church Center / Deductible Giving only / Receipts: All Church Center electronic giving is for gifts only. You may pay electronically for any non-tax-deductible payments for Two4Two, Youth trips, or Children’s events, as part of the registration process for those events. A donation receipt is automatically emailed when your gift is processed (even cash or checks.) You can toggle that receipt feature on and off in the app (or online). If you need any assistance with any of the above, please contact the Treasurer.

    Cash and Checks are always welcome in the offering plate/giving boxes. You can split your gift between funds with a memo field note, or with separate checks, whichever you personally prefer.

    Important notes: When writing a check to the Capital Campaign, please write “Unreachable” or “Campaign” in the memo field. If you write “Cityview” in the memo, your gift will be allocated to the Cityview General Fund. All checks should be payable to “Grandview Christian Church,” not payable to any fund or campus. Please do not mail cash anywhere! And do not mail checks to the Treasurer’s home address or any other staff member’s home address.

    If you desire to mail a check, please mail to:
