Ways to Give
Based on the spiritual principles of the Old Testament and the teachings of Jesus, stewardship is a way of life — recognizing that all that we have and all that we are, are gifts from God. Through stewardship, we give back to our parish community and say to those in need among us: you are brother and sister to us; you matter and we care. Both givers’ and receivers’ lives are changed through stewardship.
May our lives reflect the generosity and love of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
No Envelope? No Problem: You can give in person during any weekend mass. Or, give a gift to St. Patrick Parish by mail.
Electronic Giving: Do you usually pay your bills electronically with an automatic withdrawal from your checking account or by debit or credit card? Are you away on weekends many times due to family obligations? Do you spend your winters in a warmer climate and thus are absent for many months in a row?
If so, electronic giving may be for you! This makes giving convenient for you, and your consistent offering makes it easier for us to budget our finances. We have joined with Liturgical Publications, Inc. (our bulletin company) and the WeShare program to offer electronic giving. This very safe and secure website will allow you to make electronic payments for the Sunday Offertory, Building Fund, Catholic Services Appeal (monthly gifts as well as pledge payments), special collections, St. Patrick School Advancement, and Saint Patrick Community Food Pantry. WeShare will also allow you to make one time donations or memorials and honorariums electronically.
To Sign Up For Electronic Giving: Click the button below or stop in the parish office and ask for Diane and she can help with the sign-up process. Electronic Giving Sign Up
Weekly Offertory: If you give electronically and still wish to participate in the weekly offertory, you can download and print out a slip.
Remember your parish in your will: To include St. Patrick Parish in your will, please use our legal name.
There’s no better investment than one made in your local parish,
where people meet Jesus and lives are changed.
