Donate
Giving is an act of faith that enriches both the giver and the community. At First Congregational Church of Martinez, we believe in the transformative power of generosity. "Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also" (Matthew 6:21). This principle guides our approach to stewardship and community building.
The Impact of Your Generosity
Your financial contributions are vital to our church's operations, enabling us to:
- Maintain our historic sanctuary and facilities
- Compensate our dedicated staff, including Pastor Lori Ortiz
- Fund our diverse ministries and community outreach programs
We are committed to transparency in our financial management. Each month, we report details of our finances in our worship bulletin. Plus, our Annual Report, which details our budget and financial health, is available for review by all church members and friends.
