Online Payments
The Conference now offers a greatly expanded online payment capability! This service will allow churches and individuals to submit payments electronically, instead of mailing checks to the Conference Center.
Separate webpages have been set-up as indicated by the sections below.
Annual Conference Registration & Special Offerings
This page will be available for a limited time during the year (April through June) to allow churches and individuals to pay their Annual Conference registration fees as well as make donations to the special offerings. Please make sure you have completed your Annual Conference Registration prior to making your payment
By clicking on the orange button below, you will be connected to the Annual Conference payments page. An online profile is not required to make payments through this page
Annual Conference Payment & Special Offerings
Camping & Retreat Ministries - Bishop's Initiative
As witnessed at the 2017 Annual Conference, Bishop Moore-Koikoi’s initiative to raise $5 million, over the next 4 years, for conference camping and retreat ministries was received with overwhelming acceptance and generosity. This site has been established as one avenue to financially support this strategic undertaking.
Individuals and organizations external to WPAUMC can make an online contribution using their bank account or credit card by clicking the brown button below; Individuals affiliated with WPAUMC should give through their local church. Churches can also contribute online; however, they should continue to use the Local Church Remittances page.
Conference Special Appeal – At The Lake Ministries
At The Lake Ministries is faithfully dedicated to offering our brothers and sisters in Christ who live with a disability a space in which to foster relationships and build community through faith-based, specialized fishing experiences on Lake Erie. This site has been established to financially support the development of this new fishing ministry and refurbish our vessel, JoAnn M. We can’t do this without the support of the WPAUMC Congregations.

UMPIP contributions (payroll deductions) cannot be paid through this system. Please continue to remit UMPIP contributions directly to the General Board of Pension and Health Benefits
