support park street
The best ways for you to support the ministries of the church are:
♦ prayer
♦ volunteering
♦ participation in community
We believe that everyone has something to offer and to receive.
We believe that monetary giving is part of worship, and therefore encourage those who consider Park Street their home church to tithe during the service, or to practice charitable giving outside of the church. However, monetary giving is just one of the many ways in which we offer God our firstfruits and provide care for one another.
Ways to give to Park Street Church:
Cash & Checks
Contact the Finance Office to receive a personal set of offering envelopes. We mail out envelopes on a quarterly basis. All checks should be made payable to Park Street Church.
Online
Payments can be made online via credit card or electronic check by clicking here. You will be directed to a member sign in page and then your personal giving page, after logging in. If you don't have a login, click the appropriate link below the member sign-in box to obtain a login by email. All gifts made online result in a processing charge to the church, thereby somewhat diminishing the financial impact of your gift. Of the several methods of giving online, the least expensive to the church is the electronic check method, which will prompt you for your bank routing and account numbers.
Appreciated Securities and Property
Park Street welcomes gifts of stock, mutual funds, bonds, real estate, and other personal property. Gifts of appreciated securities and other personal property allow PSC to benefit from the full market value of your gift while enabling you to take advantage of significant tax savings.
To donate stock quickly and easily, please click here. This is our preferred method of giving stock because both the donor and the church receive updates regarding the status of the transaction and it ensures that you get immediate credit for the gift. This method may also be used by a broker on your behalf.
If you have any questions or if you would like assistance in processing your gift, please email the Finance Office or call our Financial Controller at 617.523.3383, ext 311.
Gifts of Endowment
Gifts to the endowment fund provide a source of permanent funding for the ministries of PSC. The principal of your gift remains whole, while providing permanent income for ministry. The endowment fund is professionally managed by Wellington Management Company.
Gifts Through Estate Planning
Estate planning allows you to provide for your children, grandchildren and other family members while leaving a legacy for Park Street’s ongoing ministries. PSC welcomes gifts through life insurance, wills, trusts, charitable gift annuities, retirement accounts and life estates. To plan such a gift, either consult your personal financial planner or contact the PSC Finance Office for more information.
