How can I donate at SGAC?

We have six methods of donating to SGAC:

---

1. ONLINE GIVING*

Whether it is a one-time gift or you would like to schedule a recurring donation, you can give online to Spruce Grove Alliance Church.  With this option, you are able to give using a Visa debit card or the traditional Visa or MasterCard credit cards.

The Visa Debit is a debit card. It uses the same system as the standard Visa and MasterCard credit card but do not use a line of credit to the customer, instead relying on funds that the customer has in their bank account.

Spruce Grove Alliance Church recognizes that there are those who will prefer to use their credit card to give, however, it is a desire of Spruce Grove Alliance Church that donors are not incurring debt when giving to the church.

Where are the funds used?

Here at SGAC we provide you the opportunity to direct your donations as God leads:

SGAC General Fund:

Your donation to SGAC will help support the general ministries of our church in Spruce Grove. This includes staffing, facilities, operating costs and other administrative costs.

Alliance Missions - Canadian:

Canadian Ministries support the work of individuals and churches to reach people, in new places, in Canada. Whether in urban centres, rural communities, or among diverse people groups, we focus on multiplying disciples and equipping leaders to reach new people in the least-churched and under-resourced areas of Canada.

SGAC Building Fund:

This fund has been approved by the Board to be disbursed as most needed towards:

• Community Life Centre debt principle
• CLC mortgage payments including the interest portion if the General Fund is unable to meet payment
• Future development savings for the next phases of SGAC's Long Term Plan
• Savings for large building capital expenses

Alliance Missions - Global:

The Alliance Canada is committed to mobilizing and sending out people to live on mission as International Workers across the globe so that more people will have access to Jesus.  The Global Advance Fund is a pooled fund that supports our workers around the world to share the Gospel with people who haven’t yet heard the name of Jesus. Your continued generosity equips and sustains our workers and their ministry.
