An E-statement is simply a copy of a contribution statement that is produced and delivered electronically to you. Instead of receiving a paper statement in the mail, you receive the statement electronically. The statement is stored in your secure My Own Church portal. You must log in to download it to your computer.
E-Statements offers significant benefits to you, among them:
● Fight clutter around the home: you can save a copy of the statement to a computer. If you need a physical copy for any reason, you can print it.
● Provide greater security: statements are separately delivered to your secure My Own Church portal—instead of to a mailbox. Electronic delivery reduces the chance that a statement can be lost or stolen. In addition, the statements are private because they are viewed by you only.
● Provide immediate availability: you do not need to wait for your contribution statement to arrive by mail. You have 24/7 access to the statement from any computer or smart device as long as you have an Internet connection.
An E-Statement is simply a PDF version of a paper statement. The content of an E-Statement is the same as a paper statement.
