Parish Giving
Weekly Stewardship of Treasure
We ask all registered parishioners to utilize the parish envelopes that are mailed monthly to their homes for their on-going financial gifts to the parish. E-Giving is available to those wishing to have their gift deducted directly from their bank accounts on a monthly or semi-monthly basis.
Outright Gifts
The parish gratefully accepts gifts of cash and marketable securities. Bequests and life insurance proceeds are also accepted. Memorial contributions honoring living and deceased loved ones are encouraged.
Any of the above listed gifts can be specified by the donor for use by the church, school, or Capital Development Fund.
