Giving
As we continue to devote our resources to humanitarian, educational, social justice, environmental and spiritual purposes, we very much appreciate every contribution. For every $100 credit card gift that’s given, we receive $96.80 after transaction fees. So if you are able to provide a little bit more to cover those fees, it will make a big difference to our congregation.
Either way, we appreciate all your support in helping us build a community of faith that values the inherent worth of every person in our increasingly complex world.
At this time, the coronavirus pandemic makes it impossible to for us to continue our support of LAHIA by preparing meals for the homeless. We would very much like to continue supporting this worthy cause and in lieu of meal preparation, are asking for donations for LAHIA so that they can continue meting the critical needs of the most vulnerable members of our community.
Thank you for everything you do!
