Why should I give to the St. Mark's Foundation?
Every contribution you make to St. Mark's United Methodist Church, whether through a pledge, online donation, or offering envelope, plays a vital role in sustaining the heart of our church. Your gifts directly support the essential operational aspects – from salaries to utilities, supplies to repairs – ensuring that our spiritual home continues to thrive.
Yet, the St. Mark's Foundation offers you a unique opportunity to amplify your giving impact. Your contributions to the Foundation transcend the everyday. They elevate our ministry to unparalleled heights, enabling us to reach further, dream bigger, and achieve what was once deemed impossible within the confines of our regular budget.
Fueling Extraordinary Possibilities
When you give to the St. Mark's Foundation, you're not just giving; you're enabling greatness. Your gifts become the catalyst for remarkable undertakings that touch lives, inspire change, and breathe life into our church's vision. Whether it's fostering innovative programs, initiating transformative projects, or supporting vital initiatives, your generosity ignites the spark that propels St. Mark's Church forward.
A Tailored Impact
With the St. Mark's Foundation, your giving experience becomes deeply personal. You have the freedom to direct your gift to our Area of Greatest Need, empowering our Foundation Board of Directors to channel resources where they're needed most urgently. Alternatively, you can earmark your gift for a specific program or project that resonates with your heart, allowing you to witness the direct fruits of your generosity in action.
Leaving a Legacy
Your dedication to St. Mark's Church can extend beyond your lifetime. By contributing to our permanently endowed fund, you create a "forever fund" that continually generates investment income. This income fuels ongoing programs, projects, and outreach efforts that stand as a testament to your enduring commitment to our mission. It's a legacy that ensures your impact lives on, enriching lives for generations to come.
