Przesłane : May-03-2024

NEW TO THE PARISH OR HAVEN’T REGISTERED AS A PARISHIONER YET?  PLEASE DO NOT TAKE FOR GRANTED THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING A REGISTERED PARISHIONER. 

REGISTERED ACTIVE PARISHIONER MEANS:
You filled out the parish registration form.  (Check with the parish office to see if you are registered).
Comes to Mass every Sunday and on days of obligation.
Uses offertory envelopes, Pre-Authorized giving (PAG) or donating online.  See our Donations page for more information.

The use of envelopes provides a record of Mass attendance which is of most importance for our spiritual health and a nourishment of our common Christian identity as the family of God. This way we also get to know who is who in our community, in terms of being beneficiaries and sharers of God's grace and blessings. 

Accordingly, the use of envelopes is not primarily about money, but spiritual growth, healing and nourishment within the context of our local spiritual family of faith.

Using offertory envelopes not only allows the church to give you a yearly receipt for income tax but it also lets us know that you are a regular parishioner. This helps when you want to have a Baptism, Communion, Confirmation or Marriage in the parish, or if you want a letter of reference.

Registering is easy!  To register, please go to the office/website and fill out the parishioner registration form and email it/drop it off in the office.
