Have you considered recurring giving?

Recurring giving lets you choose an amount and frequency that fits your life—then it happens automatically. No more forgetting or last-minute decisions.

For you: more convenience and consistency.

For Lifepointe: a steadier budget so we can focus on ministry and missions instead of financial ups and downs.

Whether you give one-time, by check, or cash—we’re thankful. This is just a simple tool if it helps you. If you’re interested just click the Give Now link below and set up recurring giving today.

Thank you for your generosity. We are grateful for you.
