Giving in the Best Way for You

Our Governance, How to..


Whatever your reason for giving, it's smart to choose the method that best suits your circumstances. Fortunately, there are many valuable options. You can make an outright gift to SCC that assures you current tax deductions and allows us to use the gift now for our pressing needs. Or you can give a deferred gift for our ultimate use that assures you a current tax deduction plus many other benefits.

Here is an example of how Anne Adrean helped our fellowship by naming the church as a beneficiary in her will. Below is a chart of ways you might considering making a financial gift to our church.
