Churches accepting donations in Bitcoins?

[gogxmagog]

OP, you sound like a religious person so I'm assuming you go to a church of your choice. Why don't you approach your pastor and set him up with a wallet and place QR codes in the church. You would be tithing your time and knowledge, and like the old adage says; give a man a fish and he has a meal, teach him to fish and he can eat for a lifetime. Also, tell them Bitcoin Jesus sent you lol.

I would be careful with the QR codes though, I just had a thought that someone could go in and replace the qr with thief own 😜 put the code under glass

If setting up a church to accept btc isn't an option I know a few branches of boys and girls clubs accept as do United way. Not churches but worthy causes.

That is the right spirit, and it can improve bitcoin acceptance.

Instead of asking whether there are shops/restaurants/churches/charities taking bitcoin near you, why not asking your favourite shops/restaurants/churches/charities to start taking bitcoin?

Especially a church because the preacher has the attention of everyone in the congregation. I'm sure he could come up with some angle about god and technology where he could slip in a little Bitcoin wisdom into the sermon. In my experience preachers will use any excuse to speak about donations, why they are good and why you should give. Bitcoin Jesus will take your church into the future! Yea brother and amen!

Ha ha.That would be good.
Anything coming from the preacher would be taken as gospel by his followers.

Anyone know of any churches that could accept online "tithes" or charitable donations?

I know one local church (a mainline Christian denomination) that will be accepting bitcoins in a matter of days.  I'll announce here once it's up and running.
