Tithing
Tithing Declaration
Brother and Sisters,
I am looking forward to meeting with you this year for our annual tithing declaration. There are two Sunday's set aside for this, including December 3 and December 10, from 11:30am to 4:30pm. The link to the calendar can be found here. When scheduling, out of courtesy, I ask that you not leave gaps--please choose the earliest available time. There are opportunities to come in person or via zoom, though I hope you will choose to come in person. If you prefer to make your declaration electronically, you may email me at bishopjeff4th@gmail.com (please do not text your declaration).
As before, we encourage you to review your annual donations at churchofjesuschrist.org/donations, where you can also print your annual tax statement.
If you would like to prepare in some way for tithing declaration this year, please spend some time with the principles of this lesson regarding consecration. In addition, if you do not have children at home, please also take some time reviewing the opportunities found here, whether or not you feel like you are currently in a position to serve as a senior missionary.
With Gratitude,
Bishop Christensen
