In recent years, the number of people who manage their finances online has increased dramatically. Many cite convenience and control as their primary reasons for moving to automated payments and online account management – less time and paper wasted writing checks and mailing envelopes, less chance for late or missed payments, better budget planning and oversight, and helpful year-end reporting.
St. John’s is pleased to announce a new Automated Giving program, ParishPay, that offers not just convenience and control, but something even better – a more effective way to support our Parish and sustain our vibrant spiritual home. Weekly offertory collections are not consistent, a reflection not only of economic factors but the variations in Mass attendance that occur with vacations, holidays, and other life events. A significant Automated Giving program will provide the Parish with more consistent and stable contributions, which will enhance our ability to budget and manage our resources.
With ParishPay, you can set up a secure, automatic monthly contribution from a checking, savings, or credit card account to replace your weekly offerings. ParishPay can also be used for special collections, Grand Annual Appeal contributions, and special celebrations (like Christmas and Easter.) There is no cost to you to participate in this program, and you can start, stop, or adjust your contributions privately via secure web access. Find out more by visiting our Automated Giving page – you’ll find complete information and instructions for signing up and getting started. It’s easy, it’s safe, and best of all – it’s better for St. John’s.
