Offering and Donations

We appreciate all offering and donations.

Your faithful financial support is an act of worship and makes the ministry of First Evangelical  Lutheran Church possible. It is through the varied gifts of our members and friends that we can live fully into our mission statement to “joyfully live and share the good news.” Thank You!

There are several ways to support our congregation financially:
