Giving – An Act Of Worship

Christian generosity is an expression of our gratitude for all God does for us through Jesus Christ. The mission of Christ’s Church to make disciples of Jesus Christ throughout the world and across the street could not happen without the generosity of the gifts of the Holy Spirit and without the generosity of the gifts of the people of Christ’s Church. The community of faith is called to share our prayers, our presence, our gifts, our service and our witness. We believe your faithful giving is an act of worshiping God.

Thank you for your faithful gifts to Ortega Church!

Offerings are received in-person as part of our Sunday worship, or you can share your offerings and donations through any of the following secure and convenient online giving systems:
