Just as our time and talents are gifts from God, so too is our treasure. Yes, our financial contributions help maintain the daily operations and life of our parish, but more importantly giving of our treasure blesses us, the giver. It's another way to live out our discipleship calling, putting our faith into action by entrusting our family’s financial resources to God.
We thus invite parishioners to prayerfully consider giving 5% of their gross income to God through the parish offertory (through e-giving or physically at Mass), 1% to the diocese, and 4% to other charities.
For those of you new to tithing, consider starting out smaller and gradually increasing your giving amount until you reach the scriptural 10% tithe. It may seem like a stretch at first, but God is faithful and impossible to out-give.
Whatever you decide to give, make sure it is guided by prayer and be faithful to your financial commitment through the parish offertory or e-giving. This helps ensure the long-term viability of our parish.
