Giving Stocks

Stock donations are a powerful way to support the church while being a good steward of the resources God has provided. When you donate appreciated securities, you can often receive a tax deduction for the full market value and avoid capital gains taxes, allowing more of your gift to go directly toward the work of our ministry.

Whether it’s supporting our local community outreach or maintaining our sanctuary, your contribution is a lasting investment in the growth of our church family.

And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.
— 2 Corinthians 9.8

A Note on Stewardship & Alignment
As a church, we are committed to ethical stewardship in all areas of our ministry. We invite donors to consider the alignment of their stock contributions with biblical values. We ask that donors refrain from contributing stock in companies whose practices are blatantly antithetical to values of human dignity, community flourishing, justice, and integrity.

If you have questions about whether a specific security aligns with biblical values, please feel free to reach out to us at info@epicentrewestla.org for a confidential conversation 

 

What happens when you give?

  1. You raise the ceiling for what's possible.  Instead of relying only on what you can do, you tap into faith which points toward what He can do.

  2. You create pathways to financial freedom.  Tithing and giving releases us of our closed-fisted grip, breaking a cycle of worry and anxiety, and opens our hands and heart to a world of possibility and freedom.

  3. You join in the vision.  Giving is a powerful way to be part of what God is doing through a local church community and see God multiply it.
