Automated Giving
for Collections
As part of our total stewardship plan, we are called to
share a portion of our financial resources. As Christian stewards, we are
invited, through prayer, to create a financial plan. Having automated
giving for parish collections allows parishioners to more easily carry out their
financial plan and keep their giving a priority.
Some Benefits to Parishioners:
- An easier
and more responsible way to live out their financial stewardship commitment by
keeping it a priority.
-
No need to
search for envelopes or the checkbook on Sunday morning!
-
No need to
“make-up” for vacation or other ‘out of town’ Sundays.
-
Offertory cards should
be provided for continued active participation in the Liturgy.
-
Facilitates effective
tax planning and recordkeeping.
-
Peace of mind.
Some Benefits to the Parishes:
-
Assisting
parishioners with their financial stewardship commitment.
-
A more
reliable revenue stream.
-
Processing
weekly collections will become less time consuming.
-
Minimizes cash
in the parish and allows for immediate availability of funds.
-
Statistically,
automated givers not only give a larger gift amount, but that gift is
considerably higher due to the 52 week consistency.
-
A savings on
envelope expense.
-
Significant increases from
only a few families enrolled.
