GOOD - Give Online through MySJC or via Credit/Debit Card

This allows you to give via draft or via credit card anytime, but it costs St. John 3% of your donation. Just sign in to your account.

You can give here via credit card without a MySJC account, but we highly recommend setting one up! Contact the church office for assistance.

OTHER WAYS TO SUPPORT ST. JOHN

St. John Endowment Fund

The St. John Endowment Fund provides a unique opportunity to express gratitude to God for the blessings we have received. Giving to the Endowment Fund allows your gift to support the ministry of St. John year after year. We have already received over $260,000 to date.

Giving Stock

If you own stock, consider the benefits of contributing appreciated stock. There is a double benefit to giving stock that you’ve held for more than a year. First, you avoid paying capital gains tax. In addition, you receive a charitable deduction for the full fair market value of the stock at the time of the gift.

Giving Directly from Your IRA

If you’re at least 70 ½ years of age, you may now give a qualified charity (St. John qualifies) up to $100,000 directly from your IRA without triggering federal income taxes. The gift will also satisfy the rules for required minimum distributions for the year. Please consult with a tax professional before making such a distribution.
