Giving at St. Luke’s
Generosity changes our lives! We are called to resource the work of Christ in and around our community. We take each offering as a major blessing to what we are trying to accomplish through the ministries of St. Luke’s Episcopal Church. Our church community is built to serve and none of it would be possible without your financial support. Without you there would be no church. You are the church!
Give Online
Giving online through Realm is a quick and easy way to support the ministry of St. Luke’s. You do not need an account to donate online and can give a Pledge Contribution, General Fund Offering, donate to the Rector's Discretionary Fund, the Christmas Offering, and Flowers. If you would like to help St. Luke’s offset the 3% online processing fee, please consider increasing your donation however you are most comfortable. Give online here.
ACH Bank Withdrawals
Would you like to automate your giving to St. Luke’s? Set up scheduled, automatic withdrawals from your bank account. This is a great way to stay on track with your giving and help the church save on online payment processing fees. Contact Elise Lobato via email to set up ACH donations.
At Church or by Mail
During each worship service, we have a time of offering where you can give in the offering plate via check or cash. Can’t make it to a service? You can drop off your contribution at the church office or place a check in the mail. You can find office hours and addresses on our Contact Page.
Stock & IRA Contributions
Did you know that you can support St. Luke’s using a donor advised fund, Qualified Charitable Contribution (QCD) from an IRA, or gifts of stock? These tax deductible contributions are a great way of ensuring the legacy of St. Luke’s Episcopal Church as the hands and feet of Christ to our community. Your financial advisor can help you set up qualified contributions.
Got a car, truck, RV or boat you’re no longer using or don’t want? Consider donating that vehicle to St. Luke’s. Our partner in this venture is ARC, which manages the program for many charities, including churches, along with public TV and radio stations. ARC keeps 20% and St. Luke's gets 80% of the sales price.
To donate a vehicle in any condition (new, used, running, not running) to St. Luke’s, call 866-628-2277 or visit their website. You just need clear title to the vehicle (no unreleased liens). ARC will arrange for pickup, send the required tax receipt to you, put the vehicle in the most practical salable condition, and sell it. The ARC program protects St Luke's from liability issues and all administrative red tape. ARC also can send out the thank-you letter on St. Luke’s stationery, providing confirmation of your donation to the church for tax purposes.
