Donations are generally placed in the church General Fund, which is used to pay day to day expenses and other items on the church’s approved budget. Donations can also be Designated, which means that you’d like your donation to be used for a particular purpose. The most common of these is the Building Fund, used to pay the church mortgage (write “Building Fund” or “Mortgage” on your check).
E-mail giving@felcodenton.org to ask about other ways that you can designate your donation.
