We're in the middle of a four-week worship journey exploring how God invites us to step forward in faith—and how our generosity participates in bringing light to our community and world.
Commitment Sunday is February 15. Bring your completed commitment card to worship, mail it to the church office, or submit your commitment online.
Your annual giving commitment funds everything we do together—worship, children's and youth programs, pastoral care, outreach, and more. This is separate from the Tomorrow First capital campaign. Your annual commitment supports the day-to-day ministry that makes McPherson First who we are.
Make Your 2026 Commitment Online
Every gift to McPherson First supports a congregation forming disciples of Jesus Christ who love boldly, serve joyfully, and lead courageously. Your generosity funds worship that inspires, programs that form faith in children and youth, pastoral care that brings comfort, and outreach that serves our neighbors.
Giving online is simple and secure. You can give one-time or set up recurring gifts that provide consistent support for ministry throughout the year.
Your annual giving and your capital campaign giving serve different purposes—both are important, and together they shape our church's future.
Ministry — Your annual gift is the foundation that makes all ministry possible. These flexible contributions support the Ministry Funding Plan—funding worship, staff, children's and youth programs, pastoral care, building operations, and community outreach. When you give to Ministry, church leaders can direct resources where they're needed most.
Tomorrow First Capital Campaign — Construction is underway to replace heating and cooling systems throughout our facilities. Your Tomorrow First commitment creates comfortable, energy-efficient spaces for worship, ministry, and community gatherings for generations to come. Over 110 households have committed more than $1.84 million toward this $2.7 million project—and your commitments are becoming reality right now.
Neighbor Assistance — Support McPherson neighbors facing financial hardship through emergency assistance, food pantry supplies, and diaper ministry. Your gift provides practical help to families in our community when they need it most.
Setting up a monthly recurring gift is the easiest way to support ministry consistently throughout the year. Automatic giving means your generosity continues even when you're traveling or unable to attend, and it makes personal budgeting simpler too. More of your gift supports ministry when you give directly from your bank account (ACH), which has the lowest processing fees.
Three ways to set up recurring gifts:
During Worship — Give in person during our Sunday worship services at 8:30 AM or 10:15 AM. Offering plates are available as you enter or leave the sanctuary.
By Mail — Send checks to McPherson First United Methodist Church, 1200 E Kansas Ave, McPherson, KS 67460. Please include a note indicating your fund preference if you'd like your gift directed to a specific area of ministry.
Church Center App — Download the free Church Center app to give anytime from your phone. Search for McPherson First UMC after downloading.
Stock Gifts — Donating appreciated stock provides significant tax benefits while supporting our ministries. Learn more about stock giving through our partnership with the Kansas Methodist Foundation.
