Why we give

 “We love each other because he loved us first.” 1 John 4:19, NLT

Because we have been recipients of God’s great generosity, we choose to give generously to others. This is an expression of our love for and gratitude to God, and it is our opportunity to joyfully reflect his love to the world.

At the end of every year, we as a church look for ways to be generous both inside and outside of our church walls. In the month of December, all of our giving will support specific ministries Here, Near, and Far. (Scroll for details about these ministries.) And, on Giving Tuesday (December 3) and Christmas services on December 23+24, our gifts will go exclusively to our NEAR and FAR partnerships.

We are grateful for the ways our church gets to come alongside these ministries, and we get to do that because of the ways you give. Thank you!

IRA CHARITABLE ROLLOVER

Rolling over part of your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) to Pathway can help reduce your tax bill while supporting your church. If you are 70½ or older, any portion of your RMD can be used to make a gift of up to $100,000 this year from your IRA to help further PCC’s mission.

Making an IRA rollover gift is easier than ever.

• Contact your IRA administrator. With the popularity of the IRA rollover, most administrators provide forms and a procedure to help you make a rollover gift.

• You can direct a transfer of up to $100,000 to be made this year from your IRA to a qualified charity.

• You will pay no income taxes on the amount transferred.

Note: Because you are not claiming the transferred amount as income, you will not receive an income tax deduction for your gift.

BENEFICIARY GIVING

Did you know that you can make a gift to Pathway in your will, or by naming Pathway as a beneficiary of your retirement plan or life insurance policy?  Simply contact your plan administrator and ask to have Pathway Community Church (Federal Tax ID 35-2154774) included as a beneficiary in your documents.

Year-End Giving Statements

Giving statements are emailed by the end of January to all givers with an email address on file, unless you request to have it mailed.
