Living Generously

We are generously blessed to be a generous blessing.

We believe that God has generously given each of us ways to be a generous blessing to other people. After all, because we have received Jesus' love, promises, and forgiveness, we are the richest people on the planet.
That's why we don't have to give... we get to give!
Generosity is all about loving God back, loving others more than ourselves, and living more like Jesus with our time, relationships, and finances. Jesus is continues to use your generosity to make His world a better place.
So, thanks for being a blessing to Jesus' world around us - and our prayer is that you will continue growing in your generosity in every way.

Non-Traditional Ways to Give
Thrivent Choice Dollars
Through Thrivent’s member-advised charitable grant program, Thrivent Choice®, eligible members can recommend where some of Thrivent Financial’s charitable outreach funds are distributed by directing Choice Dollars. Choice Dollars can be directed to Our Savior Lutheran Church.
​Please note: Choice Dollars designated during a calendar year can be directed until March 31 of the following year. Learn more at Thrivent.com/thriventchoice or call 800-THRIVENT (800-847-4836) and say “Thrivent Choice; or contact your Thrivent Representative.
Directing Thrivent Choice Dollars is subject to the Terms and Conditions of the Thrivent Choice® program and if you direct any Thrivent Choice Dollars® this means that you agree to the Terms and Conditions.
Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD)
If you are 70½ or older, you can make your church donation (or any qualified charity donation) directly from an IRA with essentially pre-tax income. It may be a significant method to reduce and manage your federal tax obligation. Please contact your tax preparer or financial advisor to learn more.
Stocks, Bonds & Mutual Funds
Giving long-term, appreciated publicly-traded stock may be a tax-efficient way for you to make gifts to Our Savior. These gifts are often larger than the typical cash gift. Each gift is properly receipted so that the donor has the required tax return support. Contact your financial advisor to learn more.
Planned Giving (Estates, Life Insurance, etc.)
Our Savior is blessed to have two endowment vehicles for planned giving: 1) Faith in Action and 2) Legacy of Faith. Contact Nora Gass at 253.531.2112 to learn more about how you can bless others both now and for generations to come
Cryptocurrency
At this time, we are unable to receive gifts of cryptocurrency.
