Thank you for your generosity.
ONLINE GIVING
Thank you for your generosity in supporting the operations and ministry of Benson Memorial UMC!
God provides for the ministry of our church through your tithes and offerings and your gifts are honored with faithful stewardship, ethical business practices, and accountability to our lead team and denomination. It’s more than keeping the lights on and the gears turning; it’s about personal worship to God and handing Him back what He already owns…and it’s about lives changing through the transformative power of the Gospel in our region and beyond.
But who am I, and who are my people, that we should be able to give as generously as this? Everything comes from you, and we have given you only what comes from your hand.” ~1 Chronicles 29:14

2025 Stewardship Commitments

We will be especially attentive to the financial needs of Benson Memorial, both seeking to be good stewards for what God has given each of us and dreaming boldly about what God is ready to do next through each of us and in the church.
