An "offering", a "donation", it depends on what your trying to word it for.

Are you asking for it, or giving them a receipt for the year of what is paid,

You are not "asking a question" we have no idea what you are talking about

If you are asking in regard to the biblical word I guess it would be "tithe".

Yes, you should tithe (you're 10%). An offering is different than your tithe... but we're all just guessing here because you didn't ask a question. ;)

Hello j:

The IRS doesn't require documentation of religious contributions. I don't know why your church would need one. Just take the money.

What is it that you're trying to do?

If it's for the tax write-off... then your church should have sent you your receipt for the year.
