Memorial Gifts: The All Saints' Fund
Memorial gifts can be made through the All Saints' Fund which provides donors with the opportunity to honor the memory of a deceased loved one and at the same time express sympathy to his or her family. Contributions to The All-Saints’ Fund may be made by check or online with a note designating the person in whose memory the gift is given. Acknowledgment is sent to the family of the deceased and the donor. The All Saints' Fund enables Christ Church to enhance its worship or education programs in ways that give worthy tribute to the faithful departed.
Similarly, special occasions, birthdays, anniversaries, baptisms, confirmations or other times of celebration are opportunities for people to make contributions to the All Saints' Fund to honor a family member, family or friend. The one in whose honor the gift is given is notified by Christ Church and an acknowledgment is sent to the donor.
