Give Today

                    McDowell exists to love people and see them find new life in Christ. We also partner with local and global organizations to further the work of God beyond our own community. By giving, we participate in God’s mission to redeem and restore the world. 

                   We believe that when our hearts are transformed by the gospel, generosity is the result. Giving should never be the product of guilt or coercion. Rather, it is a response to the overflow of the love and generosity God has shown us.

                 Our ministry is fully supported by congregational tithes and offerings. We teach biblical generosity, which begins with the principle of the tithe (giving the first 10% of your income to the mission of the local church) and expands to include radical, sacrificial giving above and beyond that first 10%.

The How: 

You can give in person by placing your gift in one of the black offering boxes in the auditorium during any service. You can also give by mail by sending checks payable to "McDowell Church" to our church address: 10700 N 124th Street, Scottsdale, AZ 85259

Make a one-time gift or set up recurring tithes and offerings through our secure online giving platform. All transactions are encrypted, and McDowell Church does not have access to your credit or debit card information.

You can give by credit card, debit card, or ACH bank transfer. ACH giving is the most cost-effective option and allows more of your gift to go directly toward ministry compared to the 1–3% fees typically charged on credit and debit card gifts.

McDowell is a 501(c)(3) organization, and gifts made to McDowell are generally tax-deductible. Please consult your tax professional to confirm deductibility for your specific situation.

At McDowell, we practice Biblical and wise stewardship of every gift entrusted to us. Each year, our Board of Servant Leaders approves an annual budget that provides structure and guardrails for our staff. Our Financial Assistant handles day-to-day bookkeeping and budgeting, working alongside an independent contracted bookkeeper to maintain healthy checks and balances. Our Treasurer — appointed by the Board — signs off on expenditures, including any large purchases, and both the Treasurer and the full Board review monthly financial reports to monitor the church's financial health. Each year, an independent CPA firm performs an outside review/audit of our finances as part of our commitment to sound financial practices.

In 2025, we retired all long-term debt — opening a new season of ministry for McDowell. As a debt-free church, we're free to pursue opportunities as the Spirit opens doors for Kingdom work in our community and around the world.
