Almsharing
Almsharing is passing your blessings on to those who are less fortunate. You decide a dollar amount (your alm "coin") that will represent the blessings in your life (say, $5). Then, whenever you encounter one of those blessings.... you send the coin to our Lenten Alms Charity. You PAY it FORWARD!
​
Our new TEXT-TO-GIVE feature makes it so easy and quick. And kinda fun! Or setup your Venmo, Cash or PayPal app. Then, whenever you are enjoying that wonderful double tall mocha frap at Starbucks... pass the enjoyment on! Take out your phone and text (or venmo..) your ALMS COIN. Done.
​
Your blessing just became someone else's.
