We are grateful for all the financial support everyone provides. There are three ways to make recurring (weekly, monthly, periodic) financial contributions.
· Recommended Option - The easiest way for you to make a contribution is through the Church account on Tithe.Ly - go to this website or download the APP on your smart device. Once you set up your account, search for Nantucket United Methodist Church to set up your contribution—whether it is recurring or one time. Below are two screen captures—the first shows when you search for our Church, the second shows one you click on our Church. You can use this for one time as well as recurring contributions. You will be able to have the contribution come out of your bank account or charged to your credit card. Tithe.Ly automates your contribution so you do not need to remember each week/month. At any time you can look up and download a list of your contributions. The Church also receives a report which helps us track contributions. Tithe.Ly charges you a small fee on each contribution and gives you an option to cover this fee so the Church receives your full contribution.
· Mail A Check - You may also mail the Church a check made payable to “Nantucket United Methodist Church” - please write a a note in the Memo section on the check indicating Recurring, Parsonage Window Project, Easter Flowers, or whatever project of initiative the contribution should be credited to. Mail your check to” Nantucket United Methodist Church, PO Box 264, Nantucket MA 02554.
· Collection Plate—If you attend Sunday Services in person there will be a collection plate available.
We hope you will take advantage of the Tithe.Ly option since this makes contributing easiest for you, helps the Church with collecting and tracking all contributions, and in today’s current/post Covid touch-free world, helps avoid unnecessary touch points. We thank you for your past, current and future financial support of Nantucket United Methodist Church.

rev. dr. thomas m. richard
Rev. Dr. Thomas Richard has been part of Nantucket since he was three years old, when his father served the First Congregational Church of Nantucket in the 1950's. Tom returned to the Island in 1986 to serve FCC until 2001.
Since his ordination in 1973 he has served seven churches in five states, and from 2001-2013 he served as the Executive Director of the National Association of Congregational Christian Churches.
During his fifteen years of ministry here on the Island, he was deeply involved in several non-profit groups and active in ecumenical and interfaith ministries.
He and his wife LeeAnne have six children, and five grandchildren. In early April 2020 Tom was appointed as pastor of the Nantucket United Methodist Church. He returns to ministry in a tradition in which his grandfather was a lay minister, and his father first began his ministry.
After traveling throughout the country since 2001, he and LeeAnne are happy to call Nantucket home again once again.

Two Centre Street Restoration Project
Two Centre Street Restoration Project, Inc., is a nonprofit organization governed by a board of directors dedicated to the restoration and preservation of the Nantucket United Methodist Church. This majestic Greek revival structure sits grandly at the top of Main and Centre Street in downtown Nantucket, Massachusetts.
The organization formed in 1995 as a coalition of church members and volunteers with expertise in historic preservation, construction, finance and development in order to save and restore this historically significant structure that nearly deteriorated beyond repair.
The work that has been accomplished over the past 25 years has been under the guidance of experienced restoration and preservation architects along with skilled members of the building trade all with the same goal of keeping its’ structural integrity intact.
Please consider donating to our Project.
Thank you!!
