As we near the end of the calendar year, we wanted to remind you of a couple important items pertaining to your contributions to Centerpoint Church.
Charitable Deduction – Due to the non-profit status of Centerpoint Church, your contributions are considered tax-deductible by the U.S. Government for annual tax reporting. Please not donors must postmark checks by December 31, 2011 in order to claim a charitable contribution deduction for the calendar year 2011. Checks that are placed in the church offering during the first worship service in 2012 will NOT qualify for charitable contribution deduction in 2011, even if the check is pre-dated to 2011 or was actually written in 2011. However, checks that are written, mailed, and postmarked in 2011 will be deductible in 2011, even if they are not received until 2012. Online gifts given before midnight Dec. 31st will also count toward 2011. Go to: https://secure.quickswipe.com/CenterpointChurch/pay/?f=1 Further, any checks given during this Saturday night's worship service (New Year's Eve at 5 p.m.) will be counted for the 2011 tax period, even if the transfer of funds from your account does not take place until 2012.
Please keep in mind when mailing contributions that the Centerpoint Church offices will be closed until Wed., Jan. 4. Please contact info@centerpointfl.org for further questions.
The possibilities in front of us are limitless. Our prayer in 2012 is that Centerpoint Church would continue to become a radical group of Jesus followers who have one goal in mind – God’s glory. And to that end we would make a difference in our workplace, neighborhood, PTA, schools, etc so that many would come to know the message of Jesus and receive the free gift of salvation because of our church (not the building, the people!).
Thank You - We are grateful for your generosity and cherish the opportunity to be financially invested with you into God's Kingdom here in the greater Brandon area and around the globe.
Happy New Year
Bryant
