Giving options here at the Free Church include online giving via the website or church app, offering boxes on the bulletin tables, or through your bank’s Bill-Pay.

YTD giving is $552,608, compared to the previous year’s giving of $492,615. We have received a number of large one-time gifts which account for much of the difference. Normal tithes & offerings are below where we were a year ago. We are grateful for the Lord’s faithfulness in your generous giving. For info on how giving compares to expenses, as well as other statistics, see the dashboard reports available online.

YEAR END GIVING STATEMENTS Giving statements have been emailed! If you didn’t receive one, please contact the church office to  make sure we have your correct email or to schedule a time to come and pick up a paper copy.
