We are deeply grateful for your desire to support the mission and ministries of Protection of the Virgin Mary (PTVM) Orthodox Church. Your generosity allows us to maintain our beautiful church home, provide for our liturgical needs, support our community outreach, and continue the work of sharing the Orthodox Christian faith. Stewardship is a vital part of our life together in Christ, and every contribution makes a meaningful difference.
Here are several ways you can offer your financial support:
In-Person Giving
Offerings are gratefully accepted during the collection at our Sunday morning Divine Liturgy services.
Donation Envelopes for Members
To help our pledging members track their contributions throughout the year and ensure an accurate annual statement for tax purposes, we provide boxes of offering envelopes. If you would like to receive a box of envelopes, please contact our Parish Treasurer. Using these envelopes helps us accurately record your generous giving.
Online Donations
For your convenience, secure online donations can be made anytime through PayPal. Click the link below to make your contribution:
Support PTVM Through Everyday Purchases
Participate in our Scrip program and support the parish without spending an extra dime! Scrip is essentially using gift cards to support the church. You purchase gift cards through the church at face value for dozens of common merchants you already frequent (grocery stores, gas stations, restaurants, home improvement stores, retailers, etc.). The church receives a percentage rebate from the retailer for every card purchased. It’s a simple way to turn your everyday shopping into financial support for PTVM!
Buy Physical Gift Cards in Person
Lara Richards frequently staffs a table during coffee hour after Divine Liturgy on Sundays with gift cards for common merchants. These are available for purchase via cash or check.
