WHY WE GIVE

For Christians, giving is an act of worship. We recognize that God has already given his Son for us. And so we give in response to what he has given us. Everything we own belongs to God anyways, and we can't take it with us, so we pool our resources as a group of believers to serve God's kingdom.

WHERE YOUR MONEY GOES

City on a Hill is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt, non-profit organization. Each year, the CoaH Finance Team and elders prepare a budget, which is subsequently presented to our members for approval. Further, we present regular financial updates to our members to maintain accountability in the stewardship of our finances.

The regular giving of CoaH members and supporters is used to pay salaries, support ministries, pay bills, and serve our neighborhood. Annual giving statements will be mailed each January for the prior year. Further, over 15% of the gifts we receive is contributed toward mission projects and church plants around the globe. 

CAN I DESIGNATE MY GIFT TO A PARTICULAR MINISTRY?

When you give online, you will see a drop-down menu of different giving designations. If you would like to give toward the ministry of City on a Hill Church, please select "Brookline General Fund." You can also designate your gift to support other Boston-area church plants affiliated with CoaH and mission trips led by CoaH.

ARE THERE ANY FEES ASSOCIATED WITH ONLINE GIVING?

You will not be charged any fees to give online by default. However, when you make an online gift with a credit card, CoaH incurs credit card processing fees that typically range from 2% to 3%. Gifts made via debit card or ACH have minimal fees associated with them. When you give via Church Center, you can opt to cover these fees so your donation goes even further!
