Matching Gift Opportunity
The End of Year Matching Gift Fund invites new givers and special gifts to have double the impact toward our 2024 budget goals and starting the new year well. To contribute, please designate “Matching Gift” on the memo of your check, or select that option when donating online through our website or app.
Richmond Elementary School
We’re continuing the tradition of giving to families at our local school over Winter Break. This year, the school requested 40 food boxes. Visit the giving tree display in the lobby to choose items to donate. Please return donations to church by Dec 8 to prepare for delivery on Dec 10.
