Give

Checks made payable to Burnt Hickory Baptist Church may be mailed to:

5145 Due West Rd.

Powder Springs, GA 30127

‍For year-end giving, checks will be posted to the calendar year in which they are physically received or postmarked.

Offerings are taken during Sunday morning worship services. Donors giving by cash or check are encouraged to use an offering envelope to ensure we accurately post/receipt your gift. You may also place your envelope in the night depository located in the rear worship lobby. Contact us if you would like personalized envelopes mailed to you, or to opt out.

There can be tax advantages to giving longterm, appreciated securities (held for more than one year). By gifting shares directly to our brokerage account (versus selling shares and writing a check), you can generally deduct the full value of the shares and avoid the capital gains tax. We recommend you consult your tax advisor before making gifts.

For those over the age of 70.5 and subject to mandatory IRA distributions, the IRS now allows donors to make a QCD gift of up to $100,000 directly to the church. While the gift itself is NOT deductible, it does count toward your required annual distribution AND the value of the gift reduces your income - which, in most cases, provides greater tax advantages than a deduction. We recommend you consult your tax advisor before making gifts.

Creating a will or estate plan is one way we honor God and our loved ones. Proverbs 13:22 tells us “A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children.” BHBC has partnered with the Georgia Baptist Foundation to provide wise counsel and discounted services ranging from wills and estate plans to health directives.
