Give to Forest Hill

Thank you for giving to the mission and vision of Forest Hill.

For the year 2026, we’re guided by these words from the book of First Corinthians:

Love is patient,
love is kind.
Love rejoices
with the truth.
Love always protects,
always trusts,
always hopes,
always perseveres.
Love never ends.

In this period of church transition in a changing world, we are called to love. Forest Hill Church shows love in so many ways. Hopeful transformative love. Kind and welcoming love. Persistent joyful love. Love that protects all of God’s beloved children. Our church, always on the side of righteousness for decades, is in it for the long haul – patiently and purposefully, loving our way to justice as we help build God’s kingdom.

This year LOVE IS. All in.

Ways to Give

Pledging

A Pledge is a commitment to contribute a specific amount to the church’s annual budget for the year. Some people’s household income lends itself to giving on a regular basis: weekly, monthly, quarterly, or annually. Other people’s income is sporadic or fluctuating, and they meet their yearly pledge as they can throughout the year. Either way, making a stated commitment for the coming year:

  • enables our leadership to plan wisely and set a realistic budget for the coming year.
  • creates a mechanism for our personal accountability.
  • demonstrates that we are sincerely dedicated to the ministry and mission of our faith family.
