Give Selflessly

Ways to Give Financially (Treasure)

1. Using our online giving platform (see sidebar)
2. Mailing your contribution to Zion: 959 SE 6th Avenue, Deerfield Beach, FL 33441
3. Enrolling in Amazon Smile, where a percentage of your purchases comes back to Zion.

You may make special, designated gifts toward our different giving campaigns (for example, the Reverse Advent Calendar) knowing that designated gifts are always applied to the cause(s) you designate.  You may also give to one of our named funds.

Ways to Give of Your Time and Talent

1. Gifts to and for the church go beyond birthdays and Christmas.  Tangible gifts help to meet a need or demonstrate care and concern, such as donations of food and clothing to our partner ministries or particular items needed for Zion's ongoing ministry.  Non-tangible gifts include the offering of time, talents, and abilities to the people around you.
2. Volunteering is another way to be generous, giving of your time, physical and mental energy, and talents or abilities to a particular ministry or cause.  At Zion, we intentionally offer volunteer opportunities that are one-time and others that require a short-term or long-term commitment.
3. The Bible teaches over and over that the best thing a person can do for someone in need is to show up and listen.  Compassionate listening, encouragement, and being present for people in their need are some of the most powerful ways to give of your time.

Legacy Giving

One of the greatest blessings of a generous life is to know that your generous spirit outlives you.  Whether it's bequeathing assets or financial support, this particular kind of generosity ensures that the mission of Jesus Christ through the Church continues into the next generation and beyond.

If you are interested in including Zion in your estate plans, please reach out to Cantor Kurt Schmidt at kschmidt@zion-lutheran.org.
