So long offering plate, hello online cryptocurrency giving. Churches find new ways to receive donations
Parishioners at Sun Valley Community Church hear a typical message each week when it comes time to make an offering at its six suburban branches east of Phoenix.
They are told from the pulpit to give first, save second and live off the rest of their incomes.
Sun Valley’s roughly 10,000 members now have a new way to financially help the church’s ministries.
