Giving

How to graciously support the ministry of Danebod

FIRST,

THANK YOU

Thank you for considering a personal or memorial contribution to Danebod Lutheran Church. The gifts of our members and friends are the way ministry happens here, and we’re grateful for the 100+ years of dedication and generosity the people of this community have shown.

Undesignated gifts are appreciated and will be used by the Church Council as needed. Five percent of undesignated gifts will be placed in the Danebod Evangelical Church Foundation Fund.

WAYS TO GIVE

DURING WORSHIP

We pass an offering plate during worship services and other gatherings giving members an opportunity to regularly support the ministry of this congregation. We also have text to give available at 507-204-9318.

ONLINE GIVING

Simplify your giving by authorizing a regular, automated transfer from your checking or savings account directly to the church account. It’s easy to use, safe, and convenient. For the Danebod, this way of giving helps to provide a consistent, predictable income. An automated, recurring bank transfer (ACH) is simply best way to support the ministry of this faith community.
