Giving

 

“In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’” Acts 20:35

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

We give to help bring hope and light to the world.

FPC Moorestown is busily working within the church and beyond our walls all year-round. Our responsibility as church members, and as stewards of God’s grace, is to provide financial support to make our ministries locally and globally possible. 
 
Your Stewardship Team encourages you to prayerfully commit to regular giving through our online portal, the Church Center app on your smart phone, by sending a check or stock donation to the church and by considering a legacy gift. We offer you many ways to be the hands and feet of Christ.
 
Please give generously.
 
 
 

Your Giving Pledge

We give as a measure of our gratitude and as a sign of our discipleship.
 
Pledges may be made anytime of the year!
 
 
Prepaying Your Pledge
If you are able to prepay all or part of your pledge, this would be greatly appreciated. This will enable us to meet payroll, pay bills, and support those in the mission field.
 

Consecration Sunday 2024

Our Christian stewardship process is a prayerful time designed to concentrate on the giver’s need to give for his or her own spiritual growth. This is between you and the LORD. Now is the time to make that personal commitment as an act of worship. This is a special and meaningful day in one’s faith journey.
 
The effectiveness of our church’s mission and ministries in 2025 depends on your initiative and dedication.
 
 

Donate to the Capital Fund

The purpose of the Capital Fund is to raise the necessary funds for both current and future capital improvement projects. We believe that, by coming together as a congregation, we can ensure the longevity and well-being of our cherished church without encumbering our annual operating budget.
