GIVING

Giving to others is how we spread His love. 

Woman comforts older woman outdoors, holding hands; sunlight.

Giving is in the very heart of what Oriental United Methodist Church is all about. Here are some additional details for you to consider.

In the United Methodist Church, we promise to support the church with our prayers, our presence, our gifts, our service, and our witness. Your financial giving to the General Fund goes to the operations and mission work of the church: it pays staff salaries, funds our outreach programs, and provides the facilities and supplies for worship, based on the annual budget established by the Church Council. In addition to your tithes and offerings to the General Fund, you may also choose to contribute to one or more of our Designated Funds designed to provide additional support. 


You can place your gift in the collection plate on Sunday morning services, mail them to Oriental UMC, PO Box 70, Oriental NC 28571, drop off your gift at the office during the week at 404 Freemason Street, or give online by clicking the GIVE button above.


If you are interested in learning more about stocks/security donations, RMD (required minimum distribution) donations, donor advised funds, or legacy giving, please contact the church office.
