It’s easy to give to St. Monica’s
We rely on our members, the Body of Christ, to support our community. Your contributions and the collection taken during our Sunday services help us maintain our worship space, fund outreach programs in the local area, and provide Christian education opportunities for children, youth, and adults. Your generous gifts make all of this possible.

Joining gifts with others multiplies our resources, enabling us to make a greater impact. Our time is precious, but it’s rewarding to offer it when we can see what we’re doing together.
