Simply Giving
Learn how to fulfill your pledge with regular automatic transfers.
Simply Giving
This is a program run by Trivent and administered by Vanco Services, which allows members to contribute regularly to the church with an automatic bank draft. You can specify the frequency of the contribution: weekly on Fridays or Mondays, monthly on the 1st, monthly on the 15th, or semi-monthly.
You can specify how the money is designated for the church: Regular Operating Budget, Building Fund/Debt Reduction, Endowment Fund, or any other established fund at Christ Natick. This program can also be used for regular donations to other Lutheran programs like LSS, Calumet and the ELCA at large. For a further description of the program you may consult the Thrivent web site:
