Dearborn First UMC is migrating to a new giving platform!
Dearborn First UMC is upgrading our online giving platform to better serve our congregation and community. As part of this upgrade, we are transitioning from our current giving platform (VANCO) to the new Servant Keeper Online Giving Platform. This change allows us to streamline our process, while benefiting from cost savings, as well as some additional features. While the interface may look a little different, the functionality for you, the user, is very similar.

Pass the Torch and Bless the World
Our focus on giving in 2025 explores our role as torchbearers in the Kin-dom of God.
This congregation has operated for 200+ years, thanks to the foresight, faith, service, sacrifice, and gifts of those who came before us. They have gifted us with a rich legacy of ministry and outreach that we are called to build upon and pass to the next generation.
Now it is our turn to take up the torch. What kind of torch will we pass to the next generation? Consider your gifts and how they will help Dearborn First UMC bless the world for years to come.

Dearborn First UMC celebrates 210+ years of growing mission and ministry and looks forward to many more!
As Christians, we are called to give as God has given to us. We share our gifts of love, time, talent, service, and money - all of which support the mission and ministries driving our vision to be a welcoming, inclusive, socially-engaged faith community striving to transform the world.
