Ways to Give
002
In Person
Drop your gift into one of the secure giving boxes or kiosks, available anytime Sunday morning.
Why We Give
Giving isn't about obligation. It's about worship.
We give because everything we have is a gift from God. Our time, our talents, our treasure—it all comes from Him. Generosity is simply giving back a portion of what's already His. And when we do, we get to watch Him multiply it in ways we never imagined.
Tithes vs. Offerings
Tithe: The Foundation
The tithe is 10% of your income, given to your local church. It's biblical, it's consistent, and it's how we support the work of ministry week in and week out.
Offering: The Extra Mile
Offerings are anything beyond your tithe. Maybe it's a specific work, missions, or a one-time gift because God moved your heart. Offerings are about generosity without limits.
Can’t Give Financially?

Giving Beyond Our Walls
Your generosity doesn’t stop in Lakeville. It goes to the ends of the earth.
From day one, we’ve committed 10% of every offering to ministry beyond our walls.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I can't afford to tithe right now?
Start where you are. Generosity isn't about the amount—it's about the heart behind it. Whether it's 1%, 5%, or 10%, every gift matters. We'd love to help you take your next step toward tithing.
If you can’t financially give, your time, resources, and prayers mean just as much to us. Please reach out or join a serve team today!
Where does my money go?
Your gifts support everything we do at Anchor: weekend services, kids and student ministries, small groups, pastoral care, local outreach, and global missions. We're committed to stewarding your generosity well.
If you’d like to speak with one of our staff about this topic, we’d be happy to meet with you! Reach out anytime.
Can I designate my gift to a specific fund?
In most cases, gifts go toward either our General Fund or “The Best Is Yet To Come” campaign—supporting missions, expansion, and what’s ahead for Anchor.
If you’re hoping to give toward something specific, feel free to reach out—we’d love to connect with you.
Can I give anonymously?
Yes. If you prefer to give anonymously, you can do so online or drop cash in the secured giving-boxes during service. Just know that we won't be able to send you a year-end giving statement unless we have your information.
What if I have more questions about giving?
We'd love to talk with you! Reach out to us at or stop by the Connections Area on Sunday. No question is off-limits.
