Giving at St. Mark’s
We believe that as people of faith, we are called to give of ourselves: our time, our talents and abilities, and our money. We hold up the ten percent tithe as a scriptural standard and goal for our giving.
In addition to giving cash or check on Sunday mornings, you can also support St. Mark’s and fulfill your pledge with a direct bank draft one-time or re-occurring (no additional fees). Email Amber, our bookkeeper, to set it up.
We also accept credit and debit card donations via Tithe.ly. Click on the Donate button and use Tith.ly to give to St. Mark’s.
If you have any questions, contact our bookkeeper here.
Thank you for your generosity!
Online giving also available through the mobile app here:
