Ways to Give

Good Stewardship.

Every dollar given to First Baptist Church is applied directly toward our mission of reaching Denham Springs, Livingston Parish, Louisiana, the United States, and the World for Jesus Christ. Rest assured, your gifts are advancing the cause of Christ both down the street through community outreach and around the world through the faithful support of international missionaries.

Offering Box

A tangible way to give is through our offering boxes. You’ll find our offering boxes available near the church office, at the Connection Desk, and inside the worship center. Simply drop your offering into our secure box and we’ll take it from there!

Stock Gift

If you’d like to make a gift of stock please contact Billy McDaniel advising him of your intent. We’ll provide instructions on next steps to process and transfer your stock gifts.

Qualified Charitable Distribution

Direct Charitable IRA Distribution: the Charitable IRA rollover provision has become a great way to maximize your giving after new tax laws came into effect. Donors that have reached 70.5 years of age qualify for this tax-efficient way to make a charitable gift. The IRS and financial advisors refer to this type of charitable gift as a “Qualified Charitable Distribution” (QCD). Please contact your financial advisor for assistance with your QCD.

Planned Giving

Planned legacy giving allows you to make a lasting impact on our community and mission, ensuring that your faith and values are carried forward for future generations. Contact Billy McDaniel to start the conversation about your legacy giving.
