Pledging is a commitment to contribute a defined amount to the congregation during our fiscal year to help us plan and budget our expenses. Each year we have a pledge campaign. When you give, you can give towards your pledge, towards the general fund, towards our community connection, and/or another fund. You can fill out your pledge form in Breeze here.

If you put $1000 to give yearly it will be $1000 a year. If you put $1000 to give monthly it will be $1000 a month or $12,000 a year.

You can update, delete, or add a new method here.

Once logged into Breeze, click “Give Now” under the More menu at the top. Then on the left-hand menu, click on “Recurring Gifts.” You’ll see a list of your current Recurring contributions and can change or cancel any of them. You can also set up a new one from this screen.

To donate by text simply text 785-450-1999 and the amount you would like to give. Enter the amount, a space, and then the fund code (optional). If this is the first time donating by text you will be given instructions on providing payment method.

While the default is the community connections fund you can also specify the following:

P for pledge
GF for General Fund
MCF for Ministers Caring Fund.
CC for Community Connections

If you need to update your account information, enter the word ‘update’ and you will be given a link to update your account.

If you would like to unlink your phone from the text giving, text ‘unlink’ to unlink your phone from the text giving service so your phone is no longer authorized to make donations.

Please note that text giving does charge a fee to cover the credit card transaction and net deposit will be slightly lower and repeated text givings may cause your credit card to place a hold on your account. Giving by text does not allow us to ask a donor to cover processing fees.

• 5 P $5 towards the Pledge
• 10 $10 towards the Community Connections (default fund)
• 10 CC $10 towards the Community Connections (specified)
• 25 GF $25 towards the General Fund
• 100 XYZ This will result in an error message because xyz is not a valid fund
• 100000 GF $100,000 towards the General Fund. This would be amazing, but if a mistake is made, which happens, you can enter ‘refund’ to refund the last text donation you made (refund must be within 24 hours of donation).

Weekly donations can also be set up. Enter the amount, fund, and enter weekly, biweekly, monthly, or yearly. For example:

• 25 GF Weekly results in $25 weekly towards the General Fund
