WAYS TO GIVE
At First Presbyterian Church of Coral Springs, we believe that it is important to give primarily in the worship service. The giving back to God of tithes and offerings belongs in that context because worship is the heart of giving. Not only do our gifts support the ongoing work of the church, they are spiritually beneficial to the giver. So, the disciplines of remembering and placing our offering into the offering plate are important to preserve. We encourage you to give in the service itself regularly.
But, we recognize that all kinds of circumstances lead to needing other means of supporting the church. There are several ways to give and support the ministry at FPC:
- Drop your donation in the offering plate during the worship service.
- Mail a check to our office, payable to First Presbyterian Church: PO Box 8826 Coral Springs, FL 33075
- Set up an electronic bill pay through your own bank (no charge to the church).
- Give ONLINE through a one-time or recurring gift.
- Donate stock (see below)

Donating an investment with a long-term (positions held for a period of greater than one year) capital gain allows the church the ability to access cash in the value of your gift and gives you the same tax deduction as donating with a check or through our online portal.
