Changing lives for years…
Give Now
Support the ministries of
First Lutheran
and the wider church
It has become our tradition at First to challenge ourselves to do more. When we exceed the financial goals we set to cover First’s budget, we give gifts to groups like Hope Restores, the Reach Collaborative, The Hunger Task Force and Safer Families for Children… thanks to everyone who supports the mission here at First Lutheran.
In 2026, with increased giving of $30,000, we will call a visitation pastor to join our staff, and gift $10,000 each to Sugar Creek and the Hunger Task Force.
In 2026, you are invited to increase your giving so that First Lutheran can once again not only meet the needs of everyday ministry, but also be able to generously support important work locally and globally.
Online Giving
First wants to make supporting our mission easy for members. That's why we are happy to offer the ability to manage your giving online. Giving online is easy, secure and allows you to set up automatic recurring contributions and view your complete online giving history from anywhere you have access to the Internet.

Changing Your Giving
As of August, 2026, First has now migrated to Church Center, our new online platform, and this includes a change in online giving. This change allows donors to give, update and check their giving all in the same place. We ask all donors to migrate to Church Center Giving. But before you do, you will need to cancel your giving on our old platform (Vanco).
📍NOTE: If you donate via some other method (online bill pay, disbursements from investments, etc.), there is no need to change this form of giving. The migration to Church Center Giving is only asked of those who have been donating online using our old platform (Vanco).
