Donations

“...God loves a person who gives gladly.” 2 Corinthians 9:7

 

We invite you to participate in the sheltering community of First Mennonite Church through prayer, gathering, breaking of bread, and giving. Our ministry includes Sunday worship, children’s programs, refugee sponsorship, and supporting those with immediate financial needs. If you would like to contribute financially to our programs, your donation through any of the methods below will be gratefully accepted.

 

A donation receipt from First Mennonite Church will typically be emailed to you at the beginning of the following year. We gratefully accept donations to a designated project or program. However, if the total amount of donations received exceeds the needs of that designated program or project, or the designation is to a program we are not actively engaged in, the donation will be redirected to where it is needed most within First Mennonite Church.
