Why?

Financial giving is a key value within our church. We encourage everyone who calls Elim their homen church to be part of the ongoing work of God through the practice of giving. Through peoples' generous giving we are able to keep stepping into everything that we feel God is calling us to do. 

If you would like a tithe number for a tax rebate purposes then please email us. Current laws allow you to claim back 1/3 of your giving to all registered charities of which we are one.
