One quick and easy way to give electronically is by using the "Bill Pay" feature of your bank's website. This service is normally provided free of charge both to you (the bank's customer), and to the church. And when you give online using a Recurring Payment, you never have to worry about forgetting your checkbook or being out of town on Sunday. Instead, your gift can be deducted automatically from your account without you ever having to manually write a check. Each bank's website will be slightly different, but here is how the basic process works:
1. Log on to your bank's website and click on the link for the "Bill Pay" feature.
2. Add First Church of Christ as a Payee.
3. Set up a Recurring Payment to be sent to the church on a scheduled basis (weekly, monthly, etc.). You can also send a one-time gift (e.g., for a special offering).
4. Each time you make a gift (either one-time or recurring), the bank will mail a check to the church. This check will be deposited into the church's bank account just like a regular, handwritten check.
Please make checks payable to The First Church of Christ and mail to: 55 Church Rd Clinton, CT 06413.
Please note in the memo line the check's designation: worship offering, 2025 pledge payment, mission, capital improvement, etc.
If you’re joining us in person, you can place your cash or check in an offering envelope (either a pledge envelope or an envelope from the pew rack) and place it in the offering plate.
Complete giving information and credit/debit card details. Once complete, the information is securely saved for future gifts.
You can easily give at any time by texting a simple number (ex. 250) and hitting send!
