Giving
Your gift supports the ministries of FPC Stillwater and allows us to serve as Christ's hands and feet in the world. Your generosity is not our way of funding the budget; it is God’s way of raising disciples.
Estimate of Giving
God, where do You want me to be in my giving?
The Pathways to Generosity journey invites us to consider that generosity is not our way of funding the budget. It is God’s way of raising disciples.
This experience offers an opportunity to discover the joy of growing in your relationship with God as you live generously.

Time & Talent Discovery Tools
Instead of our Time & Talent pledge forms, we are moving to a new way to connect members and friends with opportunities to connect and serve through the Discovery Tool. The Discovery Tool matches your particular gifts with the needs of our community, the world, and one another.
Legacy Giving
A legacy gift is an opportunity for those of us who care deeply about this ministry and what happens here beyond our lifetime. It takes the form of a gift through our will or estate plan. For most of us, this may be the greatest gift we make: our gift of a lifetime.
