Guide to Using Christ Lutheran Church's
Online E-Giving
One Time Giving
You are able to go on the website and give without creating an account. This is good for a one-time donation. These donations are not tracked in your account. If you wish for your donations to be tracked and a history recorded of your giving you will need to setup an account.
It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED you create an account if you are planning to give more than just one time.
