DATE: March 20, 2025
BLOOMINGTON, MINN. A new preferred partnership with online giving solutions leader Vanco is set to bring powerful online payment tools and church growth resources to member churches of the Tennessee-Western Kentucky Conference (TWK) of the United Methodist Church.
TWK churches now have a direct link to Vanco’s online giving tools, including text-to-give, customizable giving pages built on the power of storytelling, a dedicated church giving app and more. Vanco’s commitment to serving those who serve their communities is an ideal fit with TWK’s mission to “discover, equip, connect and send lay and clergy leaders who shape congregations that offer Christ to a hurting world, one neighborhood at a time.”
“Organizations like the Tennessee-Western Kentucky Conference of the United Methodist Church are exactly who we exist to serve,” Vanco Senior Director of Sales and Partnerships Scott Arvay said. “We’re excited to team up with their member churches to help them grow giving and engagement to empower them as they live out their mission in their home communities.”
More than 500 churches in two states are part of the conference, which recently adopted its new five Discipleship Priorities to guide TWK members in their efforts as part of the organization. These principles include:
“I’m excited for TWK to partner with Vanco to help our local churches maximize online giving while reducing costs to keep more dollars for ministry,” TWK Treasurer and Director of Administrative Services Mark Hagewood said. “Vanco has a proven track record and tools that will be incredibly valuable to any of our churches that team up with them.”
TWK member churches can connect with Vanco to discover more about its industry-leading online giving and communication tools built to inspire generous giving, boost engagement and help churches grow as they love and serve their communities. Learn more about this new partnership here.
