Here is how it works:

You authorize a specified amount of money to be electronically transferred directly from your checking or savings account to the parish account. You also specify the frequency of the transfer. It is fast, safe and easy! In fact, it is less risky than checks, as it cannot be lost, stolen, or destroyed. The electronic transfer will cost you NOTHING and you save the cost of the check. You still will be issued a donation statement for your tax records, and your bank statements will provide you with a record of transfer as additional proof of your contributions. Donations via electronic transfer can be made to our general fund or our capital fund.  One simple and easy to use Authorization form can begin or change your electronic contribution amount.

The Authorization form and "Answers to Frequently Asked Questions" are both available for you to download in the Members section of the website in the Financial Documents & Files folder or you can pick up a copy at the Church Office.

Of course you can cancel your authorization of transfer at any time by notifying us in writing. But we believe that once you have enjoyed the convenience and savings of this new program, you won't want to go back to the "old-fashioned" way of giving your pledge!
