Giving
Regular Electronic Giving
You may have heard of Regular Electronic Giving, more widely known simply as REG.
REG, administered by LLL Australia, has been quietly supporting the mission of the Lutheran Church through congregational giving for almost 30 years.
Like some people, you might find it difficult to provide your congregation with a regular offering – for any number of reasons. So, if you are unable to attend church every Sunday, you are tired of scrambling for cash before church, or you want to be more organised with your giving, REG might be the answer.
LCA Online Donations
LCA Online Donations and Payments is a service provided by LLL Australia. Here, you can help support a variety of Lutheran Church of Australia projects by making credit card donations and payments in a secure online environment.
Bequests
Jesus said, 'I chose you and appointed you to go and bear much fruit, fruit that will last’ (John 15:16).
Your Will is an important legal document. It can also be a strong statement of your faith and commitment to your church. Specifying a bequest to the Lutheran Church of Australia in your Will allows you to go on giving after your death.
Missional stewardship Bible study and giving plan
Being good stewards of all God has blessed us with is one of our callings as Christians. But what does that mean for our everyday lives, both in our faith communities and as individuals? How can we be the best stewards of God’s gift of creation and our individual blessings of time, talents and ‘treasure’ or finances?
The Mission-Shaped Stewardship four-part Bible study is designed for congregations to explore the biblical concept and practice of stewardship. It culminates in the practical exercise of filling out a personal giving plan to encourage and empower Christian stewardship, generosity and intentional giving. After completing the stewardship Bible study series, individuals or couples may choose to prayerfully fill in a personal giving plan slip with a secret pledge, which is placed in a sealed, self-addressed envelope and presented in the church’s offering. The envelopes remain sealed and are returned to the giver to help them put Christian generosity into practice.
LCA Disaster and Welfare Fund
The purpose of the LCA Disaster and Welfare Fund is to meet the needs of people affected by disasters, such as droughts, floods and fires. The funds are allocated based on applications received, endorsed by the relevant district and approved by the General Church Board. Donations to the fund are tax-deductible.
