Giving to Bethesda’s Ministries
Your gifts support ministry! Through your donations to Bethesda's ministries, you enable us to proclaim the gospel. Whether it's through caring for little ones in the nursery, facilitating crucial conversations in LIFEgroups, preparing couples for marriage, worshiping together, showing kindness to people in need, or installing clean water wells in Chad, Africa - your gifts facilitate ministry and impact people in our congregation, across the street in our neighborhoods, and around the world!
2 Corinthians 9:7 reads: "Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver."
At Bethesda we ask our members and attendees to give, not by meeting some obligatory percentage, but to simply give as God calls us to: cheerfully, generously, and sacrificially. We want to give for the sake of the gospel because Jesus sacrificed for us, and all that we have is His anyway (Deuteronomy 8:17-18, 1 Chronicles 29:14, 1 Corinthians 4:7).
Choose the method that's best for you. Giving online is an excellent way to support our ministries; use the link below. In addition to online giving through our website, you can also use your bank's online tools, or give through cash or checks. Giving envelopes are available upon request.

Looking for a way to give that can impact ministry for decades?
The Bethesda Legacy Fund is an excellent opportunity to make a lasting impact through your gifts. This fund is designed to help us with major building projects, expand international or North American ministry, provide seminary scholarships, or other special projects approved by the Stewardship Committee. You can help us build the Legacy Fund through estate planning, a special one-time gift, or a regular donation. Download the Legacy Fund Brochure for more information.
Thank you for your generous and faithful support of Bethesda's ministries!
We are currently transitioning from Pushpay to Planning Center Giving (processed through Stripe). This button is now set to access Planning Center Giving, so the giving tool may look different than you are used to. Planning Center builds the other tools we use for ministry, works great, and costs less in processing fees. We hope you enjoy the new tool. If you have questions, please let us know at nicole@bethesdalutheran.org. From now until May, you can use either system to make your donation. After May 15, Pushpay will no longer be available.
