There are many ways to support the church financially: cash or check; on-line; credit card or automatic withdrawal from a bank account (EFT/ACH); withdrawal from an IRA; stock transfer, grant from a Donor Advised Fund or Family Foundation.

• Cash or check. You can place cash or check in the offering plate during worship. If contributing cash, please use a pew envelope so we can properly credit your contribution. You can also send a check to the church office.
• Online. Go to the E-Giving Portal and follow the instructions. For security purposes, you will be required to set up an account and password.
• Credit Card or automatic withdrawal. Go to E-Giving Portal and follow the instructions for credit card and ACH contributions. Please note that the church pays a fee for each EFT/ACH transaction. Transactions directly between your bank account and the church cost considerably less than credit card transactions. For more information, contact Martha Nommay.
• IRA. If you are over 72 years of age, you can make a contribution from your mandatory minimum withdrawal. Contact the financial institution that manages your IRA. Please note that this contribution must come directly from your IRA trustee.
• Stock Transfer. Gifts of stock are welcome and the process is simple. The stock gift is transferred from your broker to our account at Schwab.

How Much to Give 

Each gift, no matter the size, makes a difference. A one-time contribution counts. Or, you may prefer to make a continuing contribution (weekly, monthly, or quarterly). Setting a specific goal (or pledge) helps you to be more intentional about your financial our priorities. When considering how much to give, using a percentage of income may be helpful. The Bible speaks of a tithe (10%) as a worthy goal.
