Online Giving

One way that we can participate in what God is doing is by giving. Our attitude about giving reflects what we believe about the Kingdom of God. We gladly sacrifice for the sake of the Kingdom because Jesus sacrificed for us, and all that we have is His.  Gaylord E-Free is committed to sharing Jesus with those who don't know him, in our own city and around the world.  If God enables you to give, your gift will be a direct investment in changing lives for eternity.  Thank you for your generous partnership in the mission of Christ! We know it changes lives - both ours and those we reach.  At Gaylord E-Free, taking action on your generosity is simple.
