Stewardship and Giving

Share Your Spiritual Gifts

We are each blessed by God with spiritual gifts for God’s work in the world. Some of us are given the gifts of teaching or music, others hospitality or compassion, still others volunteering or mission. What are your spiritual gifts? How is God calling you to use them? Our ministers are always available to explore your gifts for ministry with you.

Give Financially

You can offer your financial gifts at the Sunday worship services. You may also mail or drop off your financial gifts to Fairmont’s church office during business hours (9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, Monday to Friday).

Online giving allows you to make donations securely and conveniently. You can give on a scheduled, automatic basis or make a one-time gift. Gifts can be deducted from your checking or savings accounts or processed through credit or debit cards.

Gifts from Retirement Accounts

Many retirement savings accounts have yearly required minimum distributions (RMDs), which add to taxable income. If you make these distributions to Fairmont, these funds do not count as taxable income. Using RMDs or other qualified charitable distributions (QCDs) can be an efficient way to support Fairmont.

Gifts of Stock

Gifting stock is one of the most tax-friendly ways to support Fairmont. When you donate appreciated securities, you deduct the full fair market value of the contribution and may avoid capital gains taxes.

Gifts from Foundations

Some people give to Fairmont through foundation gifts and donor-advised funds. The foundation can help manage your funds and giving to Fairmont.

Planned Giving

For many of us, our final gifts will be among the most significant we ever make. We hope that you consider Fairmont as your legacy—a blessing in your life and one that you gratefully pass along through a bequest in your will.
