Donations

 
HOW TO DONATE:
 
 
CHEQUE: Cheques can be made out to “Highlands United Church” and can be dropped off or mailed to:

Highlands United Church
11305 64 Street NW
Edmonton AB T5W 4H6

 
 
OFFERING ENVELOPES: Visitor Envelopes are available for your use in the pews, and please indicate anyway we can be of service to you. Be sure to include your name and address to obtain an income tax receipt at the end of the year. If you would like to donate regularly, we can set you up with numbered offering envelopes, which also include Special Occasion envelopes.

 
INTERAC E-TRANSFER Donating is now easier than ever, especially during this uncertain time. Just a few clicks through your online banking, and your donation will go straight to Highlands United Church. We are set up with auto-deposit, so there is no need for a security question or password. All we ask is that you include your name and mailing address in the “Message” area, so we will be able to credit you with an income tax receipt at the end of the year.  Also be sure to let us know how you would like your donation to be directed (Local expenses, Mission & Service, Memorial, etc.) When setting up your e-transfer, please use our email address highlandsunited@shaw.ca.

 
THE PAR PROGRAM: PAR stands for Pre-Authorized Remittance. Even though you may not be able to attend services, your church has your on-going commitment every month. PAR allows you to make your contributions through a monthly electronic withdrawal from your bank account. Or, if you would rather donate monthly using your Visa or Mastercard, we now have the ability to assist you in that manner. This will allow the church to have a more even cash flow to meet expenses, even in your absence, or during the slow summer months. If these methods of contribution appeal to you, or you would just like some further information please contact the church office for more details.
 
 
PAYPAL: Donations can be made directly through Paypal, and you have the option of directing your monies towards the General / Operating Budget, Memorial Fund or Outreach. Please ensure you include your name and address so we can send out an income tax receipt for donations over $20. If you are donating to the Memorial Fund, please add a note letting us know in whose memory the donation is made.

    I would like to express my Thanks for the very special service this morning. It was most meaningful and inspiring – It is really neat to see how technology can be used. I found myself spiritually involved with your message as well with communion and as always the words have special meaning for me. Community would be nice but since I thank you for your creativity. Loved the Bunny and its story,
