Tithing is done once a year when PLEDGES are made. How does one determine how much to contribute throughout the year.. It's done on a percentage basis. I know of churches where it is ten percent of your income..... Now deposits are made every Sunday but the concept is that in one year you will have met your Pledge. This was done in the Lutheran Church in which I was reared and my parents did it. It is done in the churches friends of mine attend as they have said ten percent right now was too much for them. The church depends on that money for everything it does from administration to salaries etc. I don't know whether a church could continue to function on gratuities. It has to be pledges from it's congregation... members.
