Ways to donate to Hope
1. Use the offering envelopes and place in
the offering plate during the worship service.
2. You may also mail your offering, either with or
without the offering envelope, to the Church Office.
(Hope Lutheran Church, attn: Financial Secretary,
32400 Hoover Rd, Warren MI 48093-1100)
3. Through our website, you can arrange a onetime
‘eGift’ or a recurring ‘eGift’ (weekly, monthly, etc.).
Follow the instructions on the website. (There is no
charge to the member to use electronic giving thru
our provider, Vanco Services. For the church, dona-
tions from a checking or savings account have a
minimal fee, but for credit or debit cards, a process-
ing fee of about 3% is subtracted from the amount
that Hope receives from the donation.)
4. For a recurring ‘eGift’, you can complete a paper
form (available in a ‘Stewardship’ mailbox in our
church entryway). Pass the form on to our Financial
Secretary or Treasurer. They will handle the interac-
tion with our provider, Vanco Services

6. Many banks have an online “Bill Pay” feature
linked to your checking account. This “Bill Pay”
can also be used for charitable contributions.
Generally, it is only necessary to enter Hope’s
name and address to have a check with your
donation mailed by the bank to Hope. If the
online form asks for an invoice number or ac-
count number, use your ‘envelope’ number.
7. For members with annual incomes within a
certain dollar range, some tax savings can result
by opening a Donor-Advised Fund and making
your charitable contributions from the DAF.
8. For members aged 72+ and having an IRA, tax
savings will result if donations to Hope are made
directly from the IRA (called a Qualified Charitable
Distribution). This distribution counts toward the
Required Minimum Distribution but is not taxed
as income.
9. If you are a member of Thrivent Financial, you
can direct your Thrivent Choice dollars to Hope.
In addition, you can apply annually for up to two
$250 Action Grant gift cards that can be used to
defray costs for Hope-sponsored community or
church events

Bring the full tithe into the storehouse, that
there may be food in my house. And thereby
put me to the test, says the Lord of hosts, if
I will not open the windows of heaven for you
and pour down for you a blessing until there
is no more need. - Malachi 3:10
