Making an Online Pledge


Making a pledge by recurring bank account withdrawl or credit card transaction

 

Christ Church has a new, highly secure and reliable web-based Online Contribution system. You may use it for one time or recurring gifts to Christ Church, using your checking account, or debit or credit card.

If you designate that your online gift be a recurring weekly, monthly or quarterly withdrawl (which you can change or stop at anytime), this will be counted as a pledge to Christ Church, and will help tremendously with our budgeting and cash flow.

 

For your security, you must create a sign in account on the Christ Church membership website.

 

To do so, please click here, or paste the following address into your browser:

Why use Online Giving?

Online giving allows a safe and secure way to manage your pledge, and you now can track your giving history online, not waiting for a statement from the church. If you set up recurring giving, Christ Church has a steadier cash flow.

 

When I am in church, can I still put an offering in the plate?

Yes. It is always important to participate in the offering during the church service. Newcomers often comment when they see church members not putting gifts into the plate, they think they don’t need to. Any offering given in church will be credited toward your pledge. If your entire pledge is through online giving, consider putting an additional gift for outreach or another purpose. If you use a check, or an envelope with your name, you will be credited.

Making a Financial Commitment to Christ Church in 2010

For many people at Christ Church, they are facing financial uncertainty and are unable to make a year long-pledge to Christ Church.  Still, all members will be helpful and good stewards of Christ Church if they make known to the Vestry their expected financial support to Christ Church.

Parishioners have asked, "Can I make a commitment for a shorter period of time?"  The answer is "yes."  It may make sense to make a financial pledge between now and May 31st, or June 30th.  You pick the time frame for the amount pledged.

Please click here for your email program to generate an email to Cecilia Wagner, who will keep your electronic pledge confidential.  Please copy the following text into the body of the email, changing the information as necessary.

With gratitude to God, and in stewardship for Christ Church Philadelphia, I/we pledge to give $__________ weekly to support our mission and ministry in the city of Philadelphia and in the world.  This commitment will be to the end of 2010, or as indicated here:
