Online Giving
Why should I give?
First and foremost it’s what God asks of us. It’s a part of living in community and being generous and without your generosity, Mercy Church would be unable to help others in a hurting world and lead people to a healthy relationship with Jesus Christ. What Mercy Church is able to do is made possible by your faithful financial support. Thank you for giving!
How much should I give?
Money is talked about in the Bible more than any other topic. Giving is the only area in the Bible where God invites us to test Him. Give your tithe (the first 10% of your income) to God and see if He does not open the floodgates of heaven to bless you in ways that you never dreamed possible. (Malachi 3:10) And we want to be clear here to say that we do not think or believe that we should give to God to get anything from Him. That is a false gospel teaching! We give because it’s what God has asked us to do. Simple, but in that there are blessings… not necessarily monetary, but of peace and a joy for being obedient to God’s command to give. We do not believe in manipulation here at Mercy Church.
What are different ways I can give?
There are many ways you can give. You can always give in the church service with cash, check, debit or credit card. Don’t carry cash or checks? Neither do we … so we’ve made it easy to give to Mercy Church through online giving. We recommend establishing automatic giving through your bank account, debit or credit card.

There are also several alternative forms of giving (e.g. securities, life insurance, real estate and other assets). If you are interested in any of these options or are confused on how to give online, please contact us at info@mercychurchkc.com or 913-390-1200.
- It’s a step of faith…deciding in advance to give.
- It helps simplify life…no trying to remember whether or not you’ve given this month.
- It allows you to give consistently and stay on track with your budget and goals.
- It allows you to focus on the service when you’re at church…if you really like dropping something in the offering bucket, just drop an empty offering envelope in so we can recycle the unused envelopes.
