Giving at All Souls Cville
Recieving and giving away God’s generosity.
Generosity with our money is part of being a Christian. We affirm this each time we speak our community’s rule of life: “submitting to Jesus as Lord over our life, including our money, our sexuality and our power.” The ways we use our money (both individually and communally) reflect what we believe and value as well as whom we trust and obey. And, of course, being a people of God’s hospitality, restoration and shalom necessarily includes gathering the resources necessary to sustain our ability to be a community and live this shared way of life. Further, from our beginning, All Souls has pledged to give away 20% of our community’s funds to our shalom partners. The more we give, the greater our generosity to others. Please find a way of giving that fits your needs.

This is the most economical form of automated giving, as no fees will be charged to you or to All Souls (allowing All Souls to receive 100% of your gift). If you are unfamiliar with your bank’s bill pay options, this resource may help. The only information you should need for All Souls is our address (All Souls / P.O. Box 174 / Charlottesville, VA 22902)

2026 Giving Discernement Form
all may, none must, some should
To help our elders steward wisely and make responsible decisions for the year ahead, we are inviting every household to complete a short giving discernment form. This is not a pledge or a contract, but simply a way to share what you are prayerfully considering in this season — whether that is beginning to give, continuing as you are, adjusting your support, or not giving at this time.
Your response will help us understand the shape of our shared life and plan with clarity rather than guesswork. You are always free to change your giving at any time, and your belonging here does not depend on what you decide.
Any amounts shared through this form will be treated with strict confidentiality. Only our external finance team at Auxilio will see specific numbers. Church staff, elders, and ministry leaders will receive only aggregated summaries to guide planning, not individual household details.
Your response will help us understand the shape of our common life and plan with clarity rather than guesswork. You are always free to change your giving at any time, and your belonging here does not depend on what you decide.
All responses are received with gratitude.
Because All Souls’ ministries depend upon people who believe in a church for people who desire to receive and give away God’s hospitality, God’s restoration, and God’s shalom, please submit your responses no later than Sunday, March 15th.

Recurring giving helps steady the life of the church. It allows our leaders to plan wisely and care for people without constantly wondering what next month will hold.
