We Give because God Gave First

By contributing to what Saddleback is doing in our communities and around the world, we are using what God has given us to share the good news of Jesus by serving others.

Tithing Is More Than Giving

One of the ways we express our gratitude to God is by giving our tithes and offerings.

What is Tithing?

Beyond the Tithe

"Beyond the tithe" is anything you give beyond 10%. In Malachi 3:10, God says "Go ahead. I dare you. See if you can out-give me." Beyond the tithe is a chance for you to be extravagantly generous. You can give additional gifts to the tithe fund, or to a specific project like PEACE, Food Pantry, and more. So go ahead, test and experience God's generosity!

Saddleback Relief

In the aftermath of disaster, we bring hope. These funds provide care and support - including food - to those affected by the coronavirus and its impact on our communities.

Can I give above my tithe to a special ministry?

How do I manage my recurring gift?

  • Select "Manage My Giving" button above, then select the "Scheduled' tab (far right). There you will see all recurring gifts to Edit or Delete.
    • Select "Delete" to close the gift and stop all future donations.
    • Select "Edit" and you can change the frequency, amount, scheduled payment date or update your payment method. The changes will take effect on the next scheduled payment date, which is reflected in the Start date field. If you need to enter a new payment method, select "Credit Card" or "Bank Account" from the dropdown box and enter all the information. Once your changes are saved, the new payment method is attached to the recurring gift.

    • Editing a recurring gift is not working:
      Editing is restricted to the creator of the gift. Since we are required to maintain separate records for each individual and every individual has a unique login, only a gift created under your login can be edited by you. You can see who the gift is assigned to by clicking "Show name" above each gift. For assistance, please call 949-609-8138 or email Giving@saddleback.com for assistance.

  • Can't find your recurring gift?
    • Your gift may have been closed due to an expired credit card or a new card being issued, causing the old card to be invalid. You can simply start a new gift. If you need assistance please contact Giving@saddleback.com or call us at 949-609-8138.
    • If you are married, the recurring gift may be in your spouse's record.

How do I manage my payment methods?

  • To update an existing payment method:
    • Select "Manage My Giving" button above. Scroll down the page to "Saved Payment Methods" and "Edit" the payment method in question. Fill in all the fields and "Save". You may need to refresh the page to see your changes. If the old payment method was being used to process a recurring gift, then the new payment method will attach to that gift automatically.
    • You can also change from a card to a bank account or vise-versa if you wish just by selecting the type of payment method you want to use and entering the new information.
  • To remove a payment method:
    • Click "Delete" next to the payment method you wish to remove. If there is no "Delete" button, then the card or bank account is attached to a recurring gift and that gift needs to be deleted before the payment method can be removed. See: "How do I manage my recurring gift?"

How do I obtain my giving statement?

  • If you give through a business or trust you will receive a statement in the mail automatically by mid-February each year. These statements are not available online.
  • For Personal statements: If you have an email and password for Saddleback, simply go to www.saddleback.com/statement and sign-in. Select the appropriate year and click the PDF Statement button. Your statement will download as a PDF for printing from your home computer. You can also access your statement from "Manage My Giving" above; look for the PDF Statement button.
  • If you have a profile with Saddleback but have not yet established a password, see instructions at "How do I create/reset my password?" Once you have your password follow the instructions above.
  • If you need a statement mailed to you, please email Giving@saddleback.com with your name, email and address or leave the same information at 949-609-8138. We will mail your statement as soon as possible.
  • If you have a valid email address on file with us, you will receive an email in mid-January with instructions on how to either download your statement or request a mailed statement.
  • If you feel your statement is not correct, please contact Giving@saddleback.com or call 949-609-8138 for assistance.

How can I review my giving history?

  • Select "Manage My Giving" above. If you do not see your history, please contact Giving@saddleback.com or 949-609-8138 for assistance.
  • This page also allows you to give a gift, download a PDF giving statement or edit/delete your Saved Payment Methods.
  • The Commitments tab will show progress on any campaigns in which you may be participating.
  • The Scheduled tab will allow you to view or edit your recurring gifts.
  • If you are married and would like to see your combined giving, please email Giving@saddleback.com and request that we associate your records as "married" for a joint statement. Please give us your marriage date so we know when the joint statement should begin.

Why is the system asking me to sign-in again?

  • For your security, the portion of our website that retains your giving information will timeout after a period of inactivity, but the remaining sections of the website will remain active. If you attempt to enter anything in the financial portion of the site after the timeout, you will be prompted to sign-in again. If you have any difficulty, the best thing to do is to "sign-out" by clicking your initials at the top right and selecting "Sign-out" and then sign-in again. It is always a good practice to "sign-out" once you have completed your transactions.
