Cash/Check
Whether on Sunday Mornings or via US Mail, contributions are
deposited weekly. Please put contributions in an envelope with your
name on it and drop in the offering plates on Sunday mornings, or mail
to the church office. Do not mail cash.

Venmo
If you use Venmo, you may send a contribution via your Venmo app to
@FCC-Melrose (first time code 7073)

Bill Pay
You can set up regularly scheduled payments using the Bill Pay function
at your bank. Payments are mailed from the bank to the church and
deposited weekly after receipt. Any changes to your pledge amount
will be your responsibility to change.

Vanco
FCC has contracted with Vanco Services to process monthly
contributions that are drawn from your bank account directly to the
church’s bank account. Fill out a Vanco authorization form and return it
to the Deacons of Finance to enroll or make any changes. Please allow
a minimum of 15 days for us to process any changes to your automatic
draft in Vanco.

QCD
In 2026, Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) allow individuals
aged 70½ or older to donate up to $111,000 directly from their IRA to
the church, which can satisfy required minimum distributions (RMDs)
without increasing taxable income. The distribution must be made
directly from the IRA custodian to the church (ATTN: Treasurer) to
qualify as a QCD. Ask your tax Advisor for more details and the benefits
of a QCD. The church is unable to provide tax advice.
