We would like to take this opportunity to thank those who have signed up for ParishPay and to encourage more of you to sign up for the Parish Pay program to fulfill your stewardship pledges. Parish Pay is a program that allows you to arrange automatic safe transfers from your bank account or credit card to Our Lady’s account on a monthly basis. Keeping current with stewardship is important to Our Lady’s. This system helps our Church by ensuring more consistent donations, making it possible to be able to budget parish expenses and meet specific financial goals. Our Lady’s experiences a decrease in giving during the fall and winter months. Parish Pay makes it possible for Our Lady’s to have a more predictable income and also collects second collections of your choice. Parishioners who use Parish Pay for their regular gifts can elect amounts based on the month and the collection name. For instance, you can plan individual gifts for the Retirement Fund for Religious, Catholic Charities, and others. This enables you to plan out your gifts, and support what is most important to you.
If you choose to use ParishPay, it will replace your weekly envelopes. Parish Pay handles all tax documentation and provides a monthly/yearly giving report as well as weekly donation slips that can be placed in the basket during the offertory section of mass. While Parish Pay is ideal for parishioners who enjoy, and are used to, the convenience of making automatic payments on their other bills, it may not be right for everyone. Our Lady’s will continue to use the collection baskets and the envelope system to collect gifts. More information about ParishPay can be found on a table in the narthex . Please know that your donation/gift is greatly appreciated. Thank you. Click on the Parish Pay Icon below to use Parish Pay
