Gifts from parishioners are the primary means by which St. John’s receives the financial resources to carry out our mission. Your commitment helps St. John’s to keep our commitments to celebrate the sacraments, to educate, and to rise to the occasion of meeting increased needs locally and in the world around us, being a Light in the darkness and making God’s kingdom present in our world.
Donations can take a variety of forms depending on their purpose and the church’s needs. The major forms of giving to the church are:
Financial Pledging
At St. John’s, we depend on regular donations to meet our annual operating expenses and to support our outreach programs. The majority of these donations are provided as financial pledges. Your pledge is important to us because the total pledge amount from all parishioners is used as the basis of our operating budget. We will gladly welcome a new pledge at any time of the year. For more information, please contact the church office.
If you would like to make a pledge online, you can go to the Plug In section of our website, and click on Stewardship Pledge.
You can print a pledge card from this page to be completed and returned to the church by mail. You can also email the church office or call (817) 927-5341 and ask to have a pledge card sent to you.
Pledge payments can be made at any frequency (from weekly to a single annual payment) to suit the donor and are usually collected during the Sunday plate offering or by mailing a check using the following address:
St. John’s Church
2401 College Avenue
Fort Worth, Texas 76110
Your pledge is a tax deductible gift. Quarterly Pledge Statements are issued to help keep you up to date on your giving.
In the fall of each year, during the Stewardship Pledge Drive, pledge cards are distributed and all parishioners are asked to prayerfully reflect on God’s gifts in their lives as they make their pledge to the church for the upcoming year.
At St. John’s, we endorse the principle of tithing and encourage our members to strive toward this Biblical goal. The days ahead present us with a special challenge. Given such uncertainty, we pray you will consider your giving to St. John’s as one of your priorities.
