Summer Stewards

I was asked the other day about easy ways to make a regular gift to the ministry of Good Sam.  It was a fun conversation to have because there are so many ways.  A number of us have set up recurring gifts through the Good Sam Online Giving Site (click on this link to look at it).  You can give a one-time gift there or pay a registration fee like for VBS at this site too.   This is easier than I thought it would be.  You can use a credit card or make an electronic funds transfer (this option saves the church a little extra in service fees).  Part of what is nice about this process is that you can make a gift this way anytime from any place you have online access.

I also mentioned Bill Pay (a service from your bank) and Simply Giving.  You can get a Simply Giving Contribution Form at church or from Rich Slavik our Financial Secretary.  Here is his email – [email protected].

My family really cares about our life together at church. Now with automatic giving we don’t struggle to keep our giving up when we don’t make it to church or are away on vacation or travel. I don’t know why it took us so long to make our regular gift to church through Online Giving.  It is so easy to set a regular amount that is automatically sent each month on the same day. It has really helped us feel more faithful about our giving to church. It has also helped us go a little beyond our usual giving. When a special event we wish to support comes along we feel more confident in our giving and we feel we can make a difference. Feeling able to make a difference really is an encouragement to our faith and faithfulness. We invite you to think about joining us in giving your regular offering to church through online giving, but don’t forget about Bill Pay or Simply Giving if you like these methods better.

It’s your faithful giving that helps ministry, outreach, pastoral care and community service happen at Good Sam.  Thanks for all you do through worship, service and giving through Good Sam.  We are making a difference.
