Giving Opportunities

Grand Avenue United Methodist Church is a volunteer-run organization funded primarily by gifts from our congregation and others in the community.  We have an annual budget in excess of $150,000 which pays our part-time staff, covers utilities and maintenance to our buildings and property, and serves the community with a number of programs and events each year.

Your gifts are important in helping us continue our work.  Gifts can be placed in the offering box during Sunday services, can be mailed to the church, or can be delivered via PayPal (send them to treasurer@portumc.org). Under almost all circumstances, your giving is tax-deductible; we provide quarterly and annual giving statements to support that deduction.


In addition, we ask that you remember our endowment fund.  Money given to this fund is not spent, but is invested to provide a long-term, continuous income stream for the church that will continue far into the future. Gifts to the endowment fund should be specifically marked for the endowment.  Memorial gifts and willed gifts are especially appropriate endowments.


Using the opportunities God provides us to store real treasure in Heaven is at the heart of John Wesley’s simple message of practical Christian discipleship. 


“Do all the good you can,
By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,
In all the places you can,
At all the times you can,
To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can.”
- John Wesley


Thank you for your gift and for being a true disciple of Jesus Christ.
