Periodically I highlight the value of “electronic giving” for your Sunday Offering to the parish. A number of factors can cause a faithful parishioner to miss a collection: travel, bad weather, etc. If you have any questions feel free to contact Mary Kelly, Finance Manager, for assistance. You can call Mary at 487-2522 Ext. 210 or email her at mkelly@smmaparish.org
If you still like the idea of placing an envelope in the collection when you are at Mass (which is a very good thing), you could simply place your empty envelope (marked “electronic”) in the basket.
We have 2 methods for on-line giving in our Parish. One is through Faith Direct eGiving the other is through the Archdiocese of St. Louis.
Faith Direct eGiving:
Through Faith Direct you can make all of your contributions to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque via automatic payment from your checking account or credit card – just as you may do now with your mortgage, household bills, and other monthly payments. This is a great way to simplify your giving – and it’s the most cost-effective, environmentally-friendly way for us to receive your gifts. Click the buttons below to use Faith Direct.
Archdiocese of St. Louis:
There are 2 online giving links for our parish through the Archdiocese of St. Louis website. Click the links below to contribute using this method. Both links open a new window on the Archdiocesan website.
General Fund Contribution – Funds are used for Parish operations.
Ensuring the Future Contribution – Funds are split between the School & Parish operations.
Finally, we have a planned giving guide available for download – click here.
Thank you for supporting our parish!
