You can also give on the Redwood App.

> Learn more about managing your Giving Account.

Please note that giving with a credit card does have an additional processing fee that you can choose to cover so that the full, desired amount is received.
E-transfer
Give a one-time gift or set up a recurring donation from your bank's website with no fees for you or the church. No security question or password is required. Email donations to give@redwoodpark.ca. In the message section, please indicate which fund you'd like to support. All undesignated donations will be allocated to the General Fund.

If you are donating for the first time, please also include your full name and mailing address in the e-transfer notes or send a separate email after you complete the transaction to the same address confirming your full name and mailing address for receipt purposes.
Cash & Cheque
Cash and cheque donations can be placed in the designated offering boxes during our Sunday services, during office hours, or mailed to 2609 Redwood Ave. Thunder Bay, ON, P7C 1Y9.

Please use a giving envelope to designate specific funds and if you wish to receive a charitable receipt. Envelopes are available at the welcome desk and the church office.

Please make your cheque payable to "Redwood Park Church".
Pre-Authorized Debit (P.A.D)
Pre-Authorized Debit (or P.A.D.) is an automatic monthly withdrawal from your bank account. This method of donating provides a steady income which helps us to manage regular monthly expenses. If you are interested in using this method of giving please print and complete this P.A.D. Agreement Form. Attach a void cheque or a Direct Debit Form from your bank and return to the church office or email to office@redwoodpark.ca.

If you would like to make changes to your pre-existing Pre-Authorized Debit agreement, please complete this P.A.D. Adjustment Form form and email it to office@redwoodpark.ca.

Why We Give

"The earth is the LORD's, and everything in it..."

Psalm 24:1

As followers of Jesus, we believe that everything - including money - belongs to God.  We also believe that we were created to bear His image. Before we were sinners we were stewards, and stewarding the earth and its resources - to care for it the way he cares for it - is one of the ways we reflect his likeness.  When we give generously, we are making a statement about who we worship; that every good gift comes from God who gives so generously to us.

"For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."
Matthew 6:21

Year-To-Date Financial Update

Here is a quick snapshot of our giving so far:

For the month of July:
Budgeted Giving: $100,00
Actual Giving: $91,941



What are the different funds I can give to?
General Fund: At Redwood, we operate with a unified budget, which simply means that all funds and expenses are included in the same overall budget. When you give to the General Fund you are supporting everything we do: Ministries, Missions, and the Food Bank, as well as the operations of Redwood Park Church including grounds & building maintenance, operating costs and staff wages.

Benevolent Fund: This fund assists people in the congregation and community who are in need.
How do I change or cancel my automated giving?
E-transfer: Changes for recurring donations can be made through your online banking platform in your manage e-transfer action tab.

Online Giving: Changes to edit amount, date, frequency or to cancel can be made through your subsplash church profile by selecting your profile picture at the top right of either the app or the giving page.

P.A.D.: Changes or cancellations can be submitted via the P.A.D. Adjustment Form. Please note that advance notice is required to make changes or cancel pre-authorized debits.
What does "cover fees" mean for Online Giving?
When we use subsplash for online giving, a certain percentage of the donation goes to them (the processing fee for the transaction). This means when you send a gift, we do not receive the entire amount. If you select "Cover the Fees", it increases your gift slightly to cover the processing fees so that the entirety of your desired gift comes to the church.
How do I receive my tax receipt?
If you have provided your email address, links to download individual tax receipts will be emailed each February for donations in the previous year. If we do not have your email address, a hard copy will be mailed to your home address. If you would like to add or change your preferred email, please contact the office to ensure you receive your tax receipt without delay.
How do I update personal information in my donor profile?
If you would like to update an email address, home address or contact information you can update your profile on the Redwood subsplash app, email, or call the church office for assistance. If you give jointly with another donor, please let us know if it would be more convenient to have your giving profiles joined for your tax receipt.
