- The next page will include all contributions you may choose to make. You can select monthly, weekly or a one-time contribution. We suggest that your Regular and Building Fund contributions be done monthly on the same date each month, preferably the 5th or the 15th, to make it easier for accounting and to reduce charges to the Church.
