Online Giving

BluePayBeginning today, gifts to Elizabeth City Evangelical Methodist Church can be made through an easy and secure online portal via the church’s website at ecityemc.org/giving.php. Through a partnership with Church Community Builder (churchcommunitybuilder.com) and BluePay (bluepay.com) – leaders in church management software and technology-enabled payment processing – we are offering this service to make giving to the church easier and more convenient than ever before.

Why Online Giving?

Times are changing. Many people never carry a checkbook or write a check. Many others seldom ever carry cash. Today’s tech-savvy generation shops online and pays bills online, so giving online makes a lot of sense. It is faster, easier, and safer than writing checks, because electronic gifts are instant and cannot be lost or stolen. With the ability to set up recurring gifts, scheduled monthly giving is simple, and if you give through our secure login portal you can easily access your giving history with a single click.

Online Giving Options

We are offering two ways to give online:

  • CCB-menu-givingRecurring gifts – Those who attend EMC regularly have the option to log into our church management software, CCB. Once signed in, users can access the Giving portal from the menu on the lefthand side of the screen. By logging into CCB users have the ability to:
    • Schedule gifts in advance
    • Set up automatically recurring gifts
    • Use their checking account as the giving source (instead of a credit or debit card)
    • Access their complete giving history
    • Download giving statements

    Logging into CCB’s secure network environment also offers an additional layer of security to the electronic giving process.

  • One-time gifts – Those who wish to give a one-time gift without the need to sign into CCB may give via the public giving portal, however they will not have access to the additional features available through signing in mentioned above.

Both options for giving online are safe and secure and allow you to designate how you want your gift/s to be applied.

Questions?

If you have any questions about the online giving option, please contact EMC today and we will happily assist you.

Looking With All Our Hearts

15-advent-looking - projectorEveryone is looking for love. No thing and no one can ever fulfill that desire as long as we look to anything other than Jesus. The People of God lived for millennia longing for a Messiah, a King, and a Savior. When He actually showed up those around Him were looking so hard for a Redeemer of their own making that they missed what was right in front of their faces.

We must be honest. If they could miss the One for whom they were longing then it is quite possible that we can as well. This Advent series looks at the sweeping promises of Scripture that God will go to radical lengths to show us Himself. We will gaze into the beauty of the fulfillment that Jesus is for every human longing. In order to do so we need to look for Jesus anew with open hearts. What we will find is that He longs to offer Himself far more than our searching.

Series Pages Update

Pages for individual sermons series have been updated to include a listing of all podcast episodes for each respective series. Episodes from each series can now be streamed directly from the series page. This will make it even easier for you to find the episodes you are looking for from each sermon series preached at EMC.

Podcast Migration

We are currently in the process of migrating our sermon podcast into our new website. This is a lengthy process that should take some time to complete. We will be migrating episodes beginning with the newest first. If you need access to older episodes, please visit the old podcast page that has our complete archives at http://ecityemc.sermon.tv.
