Support Sustainable Faith as we invest in pastors, leaders, and parish-style churches

Thank you for your support of Sustainable Faith! If you haven't already read our Annual Report, please take a look. It will tell you what we accomplished in 2023-24 and over the course of our lifetime. None of it would be possible without our generous community of donors.

This year, we are offering two distinct and complementary ways to support Sustainable Faith and receive resources for your own spiritual formation: A one-time donation towards end-of-the year giving, and a new Sustaining Member program, a commitment to monthly giving throughout the year. There are several pledge levels and spiritual formation resource bundles to choose from.

However you choose to give, we are grateful for your support and investment in our community: our Schools, programs, directors, teachers, students, and church planters and the pastors, missionaries, and nonprofit leaders we serve.

TWO WAYS TO GIVE

One Time Donation

End-of-year donations help us meet our annual budget. If given before the end of the calendar year, they are tax-deductible for 2024.

Donors of $2000 or more will receive, as a thank you from us:

• One digital copy of Trusting God in the Present, by Fr. Jacques Philippe.
• The “Embodied Spirituality” series, a group of five online workshops by Dave Nixon to take place in the Winter-Spring and the Fall of 2025. (Recordings will be made available for those who cannot attend live.)
• An exclusive group half-day online retreat with Dave Nixon and Sharon Wada at the end of the “Embodied Spirituality” series. This retreat, “Building a Rule of Life” will feature teaching and coaching on building soul care and sustainability into your life.
• An exclusive two-hour online group coaching session on your Rule of Life with Dave and Sharon following the retreat, date and time TBD.

Become a Sustaining Member

Our Sustaining Members - just like the name says! - help us maintain a steady stream of income throughout the year, giving us much-needed consistency for our programs. As a thank you for sustaining us as a community, we are offering special benefits to our new members - and to current members who already give at one of the levels listed below.

We invite you to join us at one of these levels:
