Help Our Cause

 As a part of the Protecting Americans from  Tax Hikes Act of 2015, people over the age of 70 1/2 are able to make a  tax-free direct donation from their IRA to Trinity.  This means that you  can use your IRA funds to cover your Trinity pledge without incurring  income taxes.  In the link below is a copy of the Wells Fargo QCDs fact  sheet for more information.  Please see Phil Starr or Jack Senn if  you have any questions.  

Your  Endowment Program consists of three funds:  Ministries, Properties and  Missions.  At this point, all of our funds are in the Ministries Fund.  Endowment Funds are invested according to guidelines in a combination of  equity holdings, fixed securities and bank accounts.  Each year, 5 % of  the balance is available to spend for new ministries.  
As our fund  grows, the allowable spending increases to a maximum of 9% to insure  that the funds will be used to benefit our Church programs.  Any unspent  portion of this allowable spending is carried over and added to the new  allowance for the next year. 

Trinity is pleased to offer an  electronic option for making regular offering.  Offering for almost 10 years!  Contributions can now be  debited automatically from your checking or savings account (or  processed using your credit or debit card).  Our electronic giving  program offers convenience for you and much needed donation consistency  for our congregation.   The donation schedule is on the 5th and 20th of  the month.  You can sign up for one time per month on either date or  have your donation split and taken out both times.

​If  you are currently giving on a weekly basis, you will no longer need to  write out 52 checks a year or prepare 52 envelopes.  And, when travel,  illness or other circumstance prevent you from attending services, this  program will allow your weekly offerings to continue on an uninterrupted  basis.

Twice per month - 5th and 20th
Monthly - 5th or 20th 

 Complete an Electronic Authorization Giving Form and return it to the Church Office.
