PER CAPITA: Each year, members of the Presbyterian Church (USA) share in the work of the wider church through Per Capita giving. Per Capita helps support the ministries, governance, and mission of the church at the presbytery, synod, and national levels, allowing our denomination to stay connected and carry out the work we are called to do together. For 2026, our Per Capita amount is $40 per member. If you are able, we kindly ask that members submit their Per Capita contribution to help the church meet this responsibility. Payments can be made by check or through the church office, mark your payment “Per Capita.” Thank you for being part of the mission we share together.
WORSHIP BY THE WAVES BUMPER STICKERS: Show your church pride and help spread the word about Worship by the Waves! Our Worship by the Waves bumper stickers are available for purchase for $20.00. They’re a fun and easy way to represent our church around town and invite others to be part of our community. Stick it on your car, share the message, and let everyone know where you worship!
