What is the proper way to explain to people how to give money to my ministry?
The explanation should contain the following information: Contributions should be above and beyond normal tithes and offering commitments they have made. Checks must be made out to Idlewild Baptist Church. Encourage your supporters to give online. Your name should be noted on the check and the location of trip. Mission Trip Contributions should be put in the Drop Box in the Missions Café. Instruct your supporters to use the envelopes you provide. Funds that exceed your individual needs will go to assist others on your team. Excess funds will not carry over for your participation on another Idlewild-sponsored short term team or a future short term or long-term ministry with a mission agency. Funds that exceed your team’s need will go to assist other Idlewild-sponsored teams. Contributions are non-refundable. All funds must be in by the final deadline.
