Gilead Congregational Church’s ministry and mission, locally and world-wide, is funded entirely by donations from our members and friends.
We offer several ways for you to make a donation for the support of that work.
Online
Gilead Congregational Church offers SECURE online giving through VANCO. Here you can make one-time or recurring donations using your debit card, credit card, checking account or savings account. Fast and easy!
We receive electronic payments through VANCO. There are two options:
VANCO Mobile App
Give through the Vanco Mobile app via your phone or tablet. Download VANCO Mobile Faith Engagement from your device’s App Store and search for “Gilead Congregational Church.” You can make one-time or recurring donations using your debit card, credit card, checking account, or savings account.

Auto Bill Pay
Automatic Bill Pay is a great way to give regularly and consistently. It also saves us transaction and credit card processing fees. That means 100% of your donation funds the operation and missions of the Gilead Congregational Church. Online banking is available through most major banks and credit unions. Log in to your bank’s online banking system and set up “Gilead Congregational Church” as a payee.
Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT)
We have an arrangement with VANCO to provide an EFT payment option. This secure electronic giving method will allow you to transfer money to the Gilead Congregational Church from your checking or savings account at regular intervals. To set up an EFT Payment Option, please contact the church office at (860) 228-3077.
Stocks and RMD’s
GCC has a “no fee” procedure for the donation of stocks, mutual funds, and Required Minimum Distributions that may provide favorable tax treatment dependent on your situation and handling of the transfer.
Please contact the church office at (860) 228-3077 with any questions.
