A Friendly reminder from the Stewardship Committee

Please use the “I Gave Electronically” cards, which are in the book racks of each pew. Whether you give electronically, or in a way other than traditional envelopes, please place a card in the offering plate. This symbolic gesture shows each other and our visitors that we are a giving parish which supports the mission and ministries of Christ Church.  

             If you have questions or want to begin giving online, please contact the  church office.

Each month we will highlight a different designated fund that our church takes a special collection for.

If you wish to give, please use the pew envelopes and select the correct box for your donation.

2026 FOOD CHALLENGE

The Brotherhood of St. Andrew has issued a CHALLENGE to Christ Church - Woodbury NJ to donate, since it's 2026, we are looking to collect 2,026 items of food in the month of April!

Lots of people donate during the holidays, which is wonderful, however, many do not throughout the rest of the year. Let's helps stock the shelves of our local pantries during a time when they truly need it!



Already donate? GREAT! If you can, maybe bring an extra item or two of food! 

Rarely donate? This is a GREAT time to start!

Together we can do this!"

Bring donations to the back of the church
