Merchant Card Program
One of the fundraisers that the church participates in is the Merchant Card Program. For every merchant (gift) card sold, the church receives a percentage. For example, if you purchase a $25 Amazon gift card, the church will receive 1.5%, a $25 Walmart card gives the church 2.5% . We have a list of different restaurants, stores, and even gas stations, to choose from. If you would like to see the list and are interested in purchasing for birthdays, holidays, graduation, etc., please contact Robin in the church office.
Cards for College Students
Missions will be sending cards to our college students to wish them a successful year. We want them to always know their church family is constantly thinking of them and keeping them in prayer. Please notify Robin in the church office with your college student’s name, school, and address, so Missions can send them notes of encouragement for the school year.
