Giving

Everything we have ultimately belongs to God. We are merely caretakers—or stewards. So when we talk about giving, we use the word stewardship: using the resources God has given us for God's purposes and glory. Through our giving, we minister both inside and outside the church walls. Sacrificial giving not only financially supports Holy Trinity; it opens us up to a new life of trusting God with all we have. God is the giver of every good gift—and he calls us to share in the giving.

Please note, Holy Trinity is charged a 2.23% + 30 cent fee per transaction (AMEX is charged a flat 3.5% fee). Please consider covering the cost of the fee for your online donation.
 

Pledge to Holy Trinity

Members of Holy Trinity typically make an annual pledge to the Parish. In prayer, they decide on the amount they will give to the church each year (usually in weekly or monthly gifts). We conduct an annual Stewardship Campaign every fall, where we talk and pray about how God is calling us to be good stewards of the resources he has given us. At the end of the campaign, each member submits their pledge card, committing to the church whatever they've decided to give. If you join the church mid-year, you can still become a pledging member. Please contact our Treasurer, Mark Sienkiewicz, to receive or update a pledge card.

If you have any questions or concerns about giving to Holy Trinity, please contact our Rector.
 

Planned Giving

The Minister of the Congregation is directed to instruct the people, from
time to time, about the duty of Christian parents to make prudent
provision for the well-being of their families, and of all persons to make
wills, while they are in health, arranging for the disposal of their
temporal goods, not neglecting, if they are able, to leave bequests for
religious and charitable uses.
Book of Common Prayer, 445

In the same way we plan for the current work of the church, the Book of Common Prayer reminds us that good stewardship can continue even after we die. Healthy and vibrant ministries have been built upon the legacies we leave today. Many of our Episcopal institutions exist because past generations cared so much about the future of the Episcopal Church and expressed their caring by creating planned gifts.

We hope that you will consider including the Holy Trinity Episcopal Church in your estate or financial plans and help sustain our mission for generations to come. Whatever approach you choose, your gift will honor the vision and mission of Holy Trinity for years to come.

There are many ways to make planned gifts to the church, including:

  • Bequests and Wills

  • Charitable Gift Annuities

  • Retirement Plans

  • Charitable Trusts

  • Bank Accounts, Securities, and Certificates of Deposit

  • Life Insurance Policies

If you are interested in making a planned gift to Holy Trinity, please contact our Rector, who will then also encourage to speak to your financial adviser, so we can find the planned gift that is best for you.
