Giving at Christ Church Cranbrook is rooted in the faith of Jesus Christ and in the joy to do God’s work in the world. There are many ways to give, big or small, and whether you want to make a pledge for an ongoing contribution or one-time donation. Whatever you choose to give, we welcome you to join CCC in helping transform our community by supporting this life-giving work.
A pledge is a spiritual commitment, a financial gift to support us as the body of Christ. Your pledge supports everything we do — from paying the salaries of our clergy to supporting our outreach ministries, our pastoral care, our worship, our educational programs, and our music. In order to know what we can do each year, we need pledge commitments to develop an annual budget. At CCC, every pledge, in any amount, makes a valued contribution to our mission and ministry. We ask each parishioner to prayerfully consider making a pledge that is both responsible and significant based on their financial situation.
You are welcome to make a contribution to Christ Church Cranbrook at any time. Simply click the “Make a one-time gift” button to the right to access CCC’s secure, online donation portal and make a gift.
Your gift to the From Our Founding to Our Future campaign is a chance to participate in the generosity that God has shown you in your life and through this church. We understand that every family’s financial situation is different. Gifts and pledges may be paid over a five-year period, in order to allow everyone in our parish family to participate as fully as possible, while being flexible to individual circumstances.

Stock that has increased in value is historically one of the most popular assets used for charitable giving and even paying pledges, once it has been held for a minimum of a year. When the assets are transferred directly to CCC, you receive credit for the full fair market value of the asset and avoid the capital gain taxes. Contact Gina Morgan if you are interested in pursuing this option.
