Ways Thrivent Financial Member Owners Can Help Sheridan Lutheran Church

Direct Your Thrivent Choice Dollars

Thrivent member-owners can show their support for Sheridan Lutheran Church by designating their choice dollars to our ministry. Eligible members are designated Choice Dollars, based on insurance premiums, contract values and Thrivent Financial volunteer leadership. Choice Dollars can be directed to thousands of nonprofit organizations nationwide, including Sheridan Lutheran.

The Thrivent Choice Dollars designated to Sheridan are dispersed through a committee to the various needs of the church. You can view the most recent year's Thrivent Choice Dollars on the chart below.
If you would like designate your funds to a specific ministry or project within Sheridan, please notify the church office after naming Sheridan as the recipient. To designate your Choice Dollars to Sheridan Lutheran Church, visit the Thrivent website or call the toll-free number. If you have questions about the program or how to designate your funds, please call the toll free number or your Thrivent Financial representative.
