Generosity and Stewardship

Knowing that God is the source of all things and all that we have, one of our greatest acts of worship is giving. Whether we are generous in our availability to others, in using our talents and abilities in serving the community, or in giving our financial resources, all are intended for extending the presence of His Kingdom in Dallas and to the world.

Year-End Giving

In order to comply with IRS regulations, Thursday, December 31, is the deadline for donations to be receipted for 2020. Other than offerings given in worship or online, you may mail checks postmarked by Thursday, December 31. For stock donation instructions, contact Cheli Conejo (cheli.conejo@pcpc.org). Please note that mutual fund donations can take up to one month to process. Thank you for your generosity in supporting all that God is doing at PCPC.

How to give

In addition to checks and cash given in the offering plate during worship services or mailed in during the week, you now have two ways to give online:

PCPC’s Website: Simply click on the Give Now button above (for General Fund or EXTEND Campaign) and follow the prompts. In order to set-up recurring gifts, view giving history, and manage your account, you will need to login with your existing account (which you have given with or registered for an event with) or register a new account (If you have previously given online, your old credentials will not work in the new system - September 2019).

Text to Give: From your mobile device, text the word “give” to 214-997-9973. You will receive a text message with a one-time link to set-up your account. Click the link and follow the instructions to set-up all future gifts.

• After the Text to Give one-time registration:
  1) To give $50 to the General Ministry Fund - text “give 50”. Any amount works after the word “give” for a donation at any time.
  2) To give $100 to the Extend Campaign - text “give Extend 100”. Any amount works after the words “give Extend” for a donation at any time.
  3) To give $100 to the COVID-19 Disaster Relief Fund - text “give covid 100”. Any amount works after the words “give covid” for a donation at any time.

All donations made through Text to Give will be included with your church giving record. Thank you for your gift!

Please read the Session’s statement concerning online giving at PCPC.

Credit card fees

Please note that the convenience of credit and debit card giving costs the church 2.9% of the amount per transaction. Please consider increasing your contribution to include the additional charge incurred by the church.

Electronic funds transfer (ACH)

You can also give through electronic funds transfer through the PCPC website. By logging in and providing your bank routing number and account number information, your funds can be sent to PCPC directly. This means of giving incurs the lowest fees (0.9%) other than cash gifts.

Gifts of stock

You may also give by donating stock gifts. When stock gifts are given directly to the church, there are tax advantages associated with giving appreciated stock. To make a stock gift, contact Cheli Conejo, Accounts Receivable Specialist, (cheli.conejo@pcpc.org, 214-224-2504) or Ardie Aldrich, Director of Finance, (ardie.aldrich@pcpc.org, 214-224-2503) for further information.

Whether through offerings of animals and the first fruits of the land in Old Testament times, through currencies of all kinds throughout history, more recently by using checking accounts, or now by electronic means, our giving is a very tangible way of offering ourselves and our resources to the One who owns all things, is our provider in ways beyond what we often realize, and is worthy of our most sincere expression of worship. May the giving of our tithes and offerings regardless of its form be a continual overflow of our gratitude and worship.
