Indicate to whom we should send a personal acknowledgment letter informing them of your gift; the amount is never mentioned.

Possible designations: Church Endowment, School Endowment, School Scholarship Fund, School Technology Fund, Emergency Fund. Other designations require approval by the church council.

Matching gifts

Many employers match charitable contributions from their employees. If yours does, provide an employee matching gift form with your donation to multiply your support for St. John.

Planned gifts

Leave a legacy by naming St. John in your will, estate plan, or a life-income agreement such as a charitable remainder trust or life-insurance policy. Should you remember St. John in your estate, the correct legal name of the organization is St. John Lutheran Church.

Thrivent Choice Dollars

If you are a Thrivent Financial member, you may be eligible to direct Choice Dollars to St. John. Visit Thrivent Choice to designate your dollars.
