How to Make a Change Once You Are Already Participating:

To withdraw from the program or change the amount you are giving each month, notify the Unity of Phoenix Accounting Department by submitting an Electronic Giving Change Form (which is available in the church reception area or here online to download and print).

Verbal requests cannot be accepted; change requests must be made in writing. Changes will take effect five days after the request is received.

Rev. Catherine Ponder refers to tithing and abundance in this way:

“... the practice of giving or returning - on a systematic basis - to the source of your spiritual good a portion of all that God shares with you.  Systematic giving opens the way for systematic receiving.”
