Purpose
The Benevolence Fund is established to provide urgent financial aid to individuals in immediate need. This fund is not intended for cases requiring long-term financial support. The church reserves the right to adjust or decline an applicant's request and may consider providing assistance in forms other than monetary aid.
You can apply for financial assistance using the form below.

Financial assistance is granted based on need, not on relationships with church leaders or contributions to the church. The church does not discriminate against applicants based on race, color, sex, national origin, age, geographic location, or disability. The church leadership may provide short-term (i.e., emergency) assistance to ensure that applicants have basic necessities such as food, housing, transportation, and medical care (including counseling).
Whenever possible, assistance will be provided directly to service providers or businesses. Aid may also be offered in the form of goods or services. The type of assistance depends on the individual's needs and available resources.
