GIVING

When we give our first fruits to the Lord, we deepen our relationship with Him by honoring and trusting God rather than our earthly possessions to bless us.

CREDIT /
DEBIT / ACH

  • Give in seconds using your card or bank account. All transactions are encrypted and secure. Set up one-time or recurring gifts with just a few clicks. Perfect for consistent monthly giving or spontaneous generosity.

STOCKS

  • Donating appreciated stocks allows you to avoid capital gains taxes while receiving a full fair-market deduction. You give more, pay less in taxes, and maximize your kingdom impact. Especially beneficial for those experiencing high taxes due to RMD requirements or significant portfolio gains.

DONOR
ADVISED FUND

  • A DAF is like a charitable savings account. You contribute assets, receive an immediate tax deduction, then recommend grants to IF Church whenever you choose. It's a simple way to give strategically. Ideal for business owners, retirees managing complex estates, or anyone wanting to plan their giving across multiple years.

Learn the Story of IF Church

Launch Magazine shares the story of IF Church and the power of possibility in Farmville, Virginia. Chip and Johnna Massey’s story began in this community decades ago. Now they’re coming full circle to plant a church that asks, “What if?”

What if families in crisis found lasting hope?

What if different worlds came together to heal a community?

IF Church equips believers to walk alongside those who are struggling, helping them find hope and restoration through Jesus Christ.

“But as you excel in everything—in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in all earnestness, and in our love for you—see that you excel in this act of grace also.”

GIVING FAQS

  • A Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) lets you give through a charitable account that provides immediate tax benefits and allows you to recommend gifts to IF Church over time. Stock giving means donating appreciated shares directly, avoiding capital gains tax while maximizing your impact. Both options are simple, secure, and tax-efficient ways to support IF Church.

  • WHAT

    An ACH transaction is a safe electronic transfer made directly between banks or credit unions. These transfers are lower risk than card transactions and less likely to fail due to expired or declined cards.

    WHY

    Greater Kingdom Impact
    ACH transactions have significantly lower fees than credit or debit cards — meaning more of your giving goes directly toward Kingdom mission.

    • ACH Fee: $0.45 per transaction

    • Credit Card Fee: 2.9% of the total amount

    For example, a $1,000 gift would incur a fee of only $0.45 — compared to $29 on a credit card.

    More Secure
    Bank transfers are less susceptible to unauthorized charges and reduce the chance of failed payments.

    Worry-Free
    ACH giving offers a stable, consistent way to give without having to track card changes or expirations.
