FAQ’s about Online Giving

Online Giving is a secure, web-based solution where parishioners authorize a specified amount of money to be electronically transferred directly from a bank account or credit card to the church’s account.  Parishioners have access 24/7 via any computer with Internet access to create an account and manage their giving options in an environmentally friendly manner.

It makes it easy to fulfill stewardship commitments, even when you are unable to attend church.  You never have to bring cash or checks to church.  Giving electronically also helps the church save money and plan its budget.

Once you complete the online registration form, the contribution amount you specify will automatically be transferred from your bank account to the church's bank account.

Your electronic contribution will be debited on the date you specify.

Since your contribution is made at a pre-established time, you simply record it in your check register on the appropriate date.  Electronic contributions are recorded for you on your bank statement as well as your online reports.

Your bank statement provides an itemized list of electronic transactions as well as your online reports.

You can set up to contribute to different offerings at different times; however, you will have to set each up separately.  You will receive a receipt for each one.

Simply login and update your account information.

You can cancel your authorization by deleting your credit card and/or bank account information along with your donation dates.
